Required Reading

Regarding SCRUM project management, there will be a lecture by an external expert, see above.

Optional: Regarding the LIPS model for project management, there is a compendium by Tony Smith and Christian Krysander “project model LIPS” that should be available on the academic bookshop (Bokakademin).

Mandatory: Subject–Verb Agreement and Dependent and Independent Clauses.

Highly recommended: Hints/guidelines for academic writing in English and Common Errors in English Usage.

There may be additional relevant literature related to each particular project.

Instructions for the Report

The report must be formatted according to the report template (the same files as an archive), and must contain the following:

The list only contains points that must be included somehow—it does not necessarily describe a good sectioning of the report. Instead, it is up to each group to decide exactly what sectioning best suits their particular report, as long as the report contains the parts listed above. If you feel uncertain about the sectioning, discuss it with your supervisor.

The exact number of pages is not important, and varies a lot depending on the contents, but a rough guess would be 12–25 pages. Focus instead on ensuring that the report adequately describes the project, the design and the developed solution, and the results.

Hand in the report by uploading it to the Collaborative workspace folder in Lisam.
