PRG 211 Week 2 Learning Team Instructions Final Learning Team Paper and Presentation

Submit a 1- to 2-paragraph Learning Team Status Report that includes what the team accomplished for the week, any issues encountered, and plans for the next week.

Begin working on the Final Learning Team Paper and Presentation assignment, due in Week 5.

Option 1: Calorie Management

Week 2: Learning Team Instructions – Algorithm Planning for Calorie Management

The first phase of your team’s project is to plan how your team will develop a program that calculates the user’s daily caloric balance.

Create a complete list of activities, placed in logical order, that must be completed in the first phase of the programming development cycle.

Determine the modules that are needed in the program.

Design a top-level algorithm that calls each module as needed.

Write a simple algorithm in pseudocode that lists the program’s input, output, and processing components in a logical, sequential order. At this stage, do not show the tasks and subtasks within each component.

Option 2: Home Maintenance

Week 2: Learning Team Instructions – Algorithm Planning for Home Maintenance

The first phase of your team’s project consists of two steps. Step 1 is to design the application. Consider the following:

Which maintenance tasks will be included in your application?

Will these tasks be related to a specific purpose? If so, will this purpose be indicated on the user interface?

Will the user interface consist of one or more screens?

How will the user enter the status of the each maintenance task? How will that status be displayed?

Step 2 is to plan how your team will develop a program that calculates how many tasks have not yet been completed.

Create a complete list of activities, placed in logical order, that must be completed in the first phase of the programming development cycle.

Determine the modules that will be needed in the program.

Design a top-level algorithm that calls each module as needed.

Write a simple algorithm in pseudocode that lists the program’s input, output, and processing components in a logical, sequential order. At this stage, do not show the tasks and subtasks within each component.
