  5. What –Project Goals • What is it we are trying to accomplish: • Merge Catholic faith based programs with technology. • Design a fun and intuitive catechism program. • Develop a catechism curriculum leveraging existing content and structure. • Implement technology platform to support rich educational and entertainment experience. • Implement technology supporting infrastructure. • Build instructional content using current media formats and technologies. • Multiple delivery platform support. • Develop a prototype by June. • Maintain, educate and support implemented solution. • Centralize management of users and content.

  6. What - Critical Success Factors

  7. What – The Plan • Recommended Solution • Implement Solution Using Project Framework • Project Plan & Schedule • Plan Execution • Project Delivery • Solution Support • Training

  8. How – Solution Overview • Major Decisions: • Defining the Content Solution • Programs / Courses / Content • Tools, Delivery Req., User Tracking, Scale factor, Content Linking, Mgmt • Process, approval, content asset creation, file support • Defining the Delivery Solution • Devices (TV, Browser, Wireless, Smartboards, Video – DVD, Print) • Classroom Target Group • Defining the Technology Solution (App – IT) • LMS, CMS, (.netvs .php), Web 2.0, User, Curriculum Mgmt. • Hosting (internal vs 3rd party) • Open Source vs 3rd Party • Discuss Project Framework • Method, Project Process, Phases • Review Project Plan • Time, Scope, Cost • Proof of Concept (Prototype) • Divide and Concur • Divide up into Groups (Strengths / Weakness, Skill Set) • Define & Document Requirements (who, what, when) • Individual tasks bubble up to complete Milestones • 1 Group for each of the 7 categories • Plan The Results • Next reporting period will need to present next steps for the 7 categories. • Link requirements to major milestones • Implement next steps in framework • Reporting and group communication

  9. How - Project Framework7 Categories f S

  10. How – Project Process7 Major Phases

  11. Proof of Concept (Prototype) • Define the following • Content • Target Audience • Content Delivery Vehicles • Content Production • Technology - Application • Technology – Infrastructure • Support • Training

  12. How – Project Plan / Framework Units • Based on time • Left = 0 Days • Right = 140 Days Purpose Brainstorm Instructional Production Delivery Delivery Support Support Training Training Technology / Infrastructure

  13. How – Sub Committees • Building the 7 Category Committees • Each category requires unique skill sets, divide accordingly • Volunteer for more than one, production is the largest piece • Each Group will need the following roles: • Lead – oversight and point of contact • Historian – document effort on wiki • Reporter – ask / answer questions for the committee team.
