Assignment requirements:
The Midterm is a structured problem-solving experience that
allows you and each of
your teammates to demonstrate your current Systems Analyst
skill set! There will be
two scores issued for the midterm; overall team score and
your individual score based
on the overall team score and the feedback provided by your
teammates with regards to
your level of participation.
Read the Midterm Assignment Case Study below, in which you
will be applying the
methods and techniques used during the System Development
Life Cycle.
The assignment will be completed in teams of students
assigned by your professor.
Each team is responsible for completing the entire
assignment.
• Students are expected to meet their team’s expectations
for attending team
meetings, completing individual assignments, and
contributing to the integration
of those assignments into a cohesive team submission.
• Each member of the team will submit an evaluation of their
team members,
including themselves, based upon their participation on the
team. The evaluations
will be averaged together to determine each student’s
assignment participation
grade. Your instructor will give you more detail on the
format of the evaluation.

the following questions
regarding the case study.

of the Mission
Statement is on the business and not the I.T. assignment!
