INSTRUCTIONS
For this component you will prepare a report or critique on an academic paper related to IT Project
Management. The paper you select must be directly relevant to one of these major topics:
Project Life Cycles, Integration Management, Scope Management, Schedule Management, Cost
Management, Quality Management, Resource Management, Communications Management, Risk
Management, Procurement Management, Agile Project Management, Change Management,
Earned Value Management, Resource Management and Stakeholder Management.
The paper can be from any academic conference or other relevant Journal or online sources such as
Google Scholar, Academic department repositories etc. All students must select a different paper, thus
the paper must be approved by your Lecturer, Instructor, Tutor before proceeding. Each student
must choose a research paper and inform the Lecturer or Instructor via email as soon as possible. Your
email must contain the title, authors and/or the pdf/Microsoft word file of the selected paper. In case
two students are wanting to report on the same paper, the first who emails the Lecturer, Instructor or
Tutor with their choice will be allocated that paper (provided it is acceptable). Note: popular magazine
articles, web sites and blogs are not academic sources.
Your report should be limited to approx. 1500 words (not including references). Use 1.5 spacing with
a 12 point Times New Roman font. Though your paper will largely be based on the chosen article, you
can use other sources to support your discussion. Citation of sources is mandatory and must be in the
IEEE style.
