Objectives
The aim of this assignment is for you to gain adaptive project management
experience. You will act as the project manager for an adaptive ICT project. You will
need to perform tasks such as the following:
Create a product backlog in the Agile project management tool Taiga
Develop a sprint plan in Taiga
Add risk issues to Taiga and
Present a sprint review.
The assignment is individually assessed.
The project is expected to run for 2 sprints. The first sprint has already been
completed; you will review the first sprint and plan the second sprint.
Project
You are to manage a development project of a system that will allow you to virtually
relive your holidays. The system will produce a trip based on the GPS location metadata stored in your photos. The product owner (PO) runs a website like Trivago
which lists hotel offers. The PO ultimately would like an increase in hotel bookings
with as little investment as possible.
The project has been running for one sprint. The working prototype will be available
on the unit website by Week 2. You can run the program by decompressing the zip
file and opening index.html in your browser. Sample photos have been provided in
the zip file to use with the prototype.
The following user stories are from the plan for Sprint 1. You will need to add these
user stories to the product and sprint 1 backlogs of your Taiga project.

Task Description
1. Create project plan to reflect project progress
You will provided with a rough project plan (that is, the user stories above) and the
development files of an ICT project representing the project at the end of the first
sprint, that is, Sprint 1. You will need to create a
Taiga plan to reflect the project status
at the end of Sprint 1. You have to use Taiga.io to create a Taiga plan. You will
need to complete tasks such as the following:

COIT12208 ICT Project Management
Add the provided user stories to the product and/or Sprint 1 backlog.
Perform acceptance testing to check which of the user stories in the Sprint 1
plan have been successfully completed. You will update the Taiga plan to
reflect this progress.
Identify issues related to Risks and create plans to deal with the issues. Add
the issues, risks, and controls you plan to implement to the Sprint Issues
section on the sprint taskboard in your Taiga project. Although you will not be
developing code during this assignment, you should identify issues as though
you are a member of the development team.
2. Create Sprint 2 Plan
You need to:
Create 5 new user stories and add them to the Taiga product backlog. Your user
stories should:
o Adhere to the user story template
o Possess INVEST properties including being valuable to the product owner
o Contain excellent acceptance criteria
o Include a story point effort estimation and monetary value
Inside Taiga, decompose the user stories into subtasks
Prioritise the product backlog inside Taiga.
Choose user stories for the Taiga sprint backlog for Sprint 2 with due
consideration of the team’s velocity.
You may duplicate incomplete Sprint 1 user stories to include as part of your Sprint 2
plan if they have a higher relative priority than the user stories that you wrote. These
duplicates will not be counted towards the 5 user stories that you need to create –
you need to create 5 new user stories.
You will submit your Taiga plan to the unit website. Export your project from Taiga
and upload the project file to the unit website.
Emails from Taiga.io might be blocked.by the CQUni spam filter: if you
have exported your project file from Taigo.io but not received it, then the CQUni

and Permit Sender to unblock messages from Taiga.io.
3. Present Sprint 1 Review and Sprint 2 Plan
You will present a review of Sprint 1 and your Sprint 2 plan. Your presentation should
cover aspects such as:

COIT12208 ICT Project Management
Acceptance testing: you need to demonstrate completed user stories by
performing a walkthrough showing that the acceptance criterias for the
user stories have been met. Do not demonstrate a user story which has not
met any of its acceptance criteria.
Scope management: for example,
o Present and discuss your Taiga’s product and sprint 2 backlogs
o Explain your size estimates for each new user story
o Present and discuss your Taiga taskboard for Sprint 2 detailing how you
broke down each user story into subtasks.
o Present and discuss your Taiga burndown chart and explain your choice of
velocity for Sprint 2
Risk management: for example, present and discuss your Taiga sprint issues
related to risks including any management plans regarding either Sprint 1 or
2.
You will have 10-15 minutes to present your project. You are to record and submit
your presentation along with the taiga project file (*.json). Your recorded video
should be framed to include the presenter, your audience (if any) and your
desktop. You will submit a link to a cloud hosted copy of your video.

Alternatively, you could use a tool such as Handbrake to
recording to below 100Mb to include in your submission.
