Describe each group’s general performance in the test using descriptive statistics – do not make difference claims here, this is reporting of descriptive data, just share with us the summarized results. What is the actual F-statistic you will report for this analysis with regards to the overall results? What is the p-value of the overall results? What is the p-value with regards to each of the group comparisons? Write up a one-paragraph simple interpretation that summarizes the findings.

Evaluating Agile Development Models

Here are a number of frameworks that have been used for Agile development and project management. The purpose of this assignment is to discuss how projects are planned and executed in Agile development models, such as  SCRUM, Dynamic Systems Development Model (DSDM), and Adaptive Software Development (ASD). Using real-world examples in your assignment is highly desired. One way to do that is to relate any projects at your workplace or from your research and think about how you, as a project manager, would run the same project under those frameworks.

Instructions
Write a 5–6 page paper in which you:

-Analyze the manner in which projects are planned and executed under the following frameworks and provide one example for each: SCRUM, DSDM, ASD.
-Highlight three benefits and three trade-offs for each of the following frameworks: SCRUM, DSDM, ASD.
-Determine the potential obstacles for using the following frameworks and analyze the major risks and issues associated with each of them: SCRUM, DSDM, ASD.
-Suggest key strategies from the perspective of a project manager to avoid the obstacles you identified. Recommend key actions that you can take in order to mitigate the risks associated with those frameworks. Provide three real-world examples to support your suggestion.
-Use at least three quality resources in this assignment.

Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources. You may use the resources above or others of your choosing.

Reference Style:
References should be done in a version of the IEEE style. If you’re not familiar with it, IEEE is used mainly in research papers, especially technical papers, and incorporates end-of-document reference lists with numbers as in-text citations. The basic IEEE style uses numbers in brackets – like this [1] – inserted in the text.
List all references at the end of the document. With IEEE you’ll sometimes see references listed at the bottom of each page which, again, isn’t the best for PPTs. And unless you’re a Word pro it’s more difficult to edit reports with references at the bottom of every page. So, just place the appropriate number at the beginning of each reference on the reference page(s) at the end of the document, using a consistent style for the references.

These are the complete instructions for the assignment. A rich picture represents an illustration of ill-defined problems by drawing detailed representations of them. A rich picture is a model that represents the organization’s components and relationships to discover appropriate solutions. A drawing can evoke and record insights and impressions of a situation and is usually conducted before you know clearly which parts of the situation should be regarded as part of the problem. The representation should showcase cause-and-effect scenarios, relationships, connections, and influences. A rich picture is an attempt to capture everything that might be relevant to a complicated situation.

What are the organization’s sources of competitive advantage? Has the organization approached strategic management (i.e., market participation, market entry modes, location and configuration of specific functional/value chain activities, etc.) in a way that leverages its competitive advantage and/or potential for success? Does the organization follow a strategy appropriate for the matrix of environmental forces? Is the organization structured appropriately? Is the organization’s leadership effective?

Use these questions to develop a rich picture and discuss why each item is important.

For this assignment, you will focus on pulling various elements of a strategic business plan together in a cohesive way that you may hypothetically present to executives in a healthcare organization. Identify a real or hypothetical healthcare organization that you will either create a brand new strategic business plan, or revise an existing business plan. Provide a clear description of the business in your presentation.

Chapter 25 in your reading provides a good outline for what needs to be included in the strategic business plan. Although your focus will be on the financial plan, you’ll also be pulling information from past coursework related to organization structure and marketing. You may select to present your budgets from week 5 to contribute to your plan.
The business plan is already been written and attached. Go through all of the exhibits in chapter 25 and add anything that’s not already included in the business plan. An operational budget has also been completed and attached for your use if you need it.

Use a bullet point format to address all of the points in the exhibits. There is no need for any APA format since this will be orally presented. AS long as the information is clear, feel free to format any way you need to.

Description

Course Description:
Space exploration and exploitation have become global activities. While the United States and the Soviet Union were battling for supremacy during the Cold War and striving for “firsts” in the
Space Race, several nascent space powers were blossoming in the background. Not limited to the U.S. and USSR, the dream of spaceflight sprouted in lands as diverse as France, Germany, China, Japan, India, Israel and Brazil. The European Space Agency, the Chinese Space Program, the Japanese Space Program and the Indian Space Program have become space powerhouses. A study of these various programs is essential to gain a thorough understanding that space exploration is not only a global enterprise, but also an important concern for our own national security.
