INTRODUCTION
Project management is the process of completing a certain task to attain some specific
objectives. It is applied with several effective techniques such as critical path method, network
diagram (Kaus & et. al., 2007). The present report is based on developing new Teaching and
Learning System (TLS) for High-Quality Institute (HQI) for better education of students and
providing them easy access to portal or units. For this purpose, project plan has been prepared
with the application of Gantt chart and critical path. Furthermore, evaluation of the project has
been done through payback period, net present value and return on investment. Moreover, the
work-breakdown structure has been prepared for overall TLS project.
Determining the functional and non-functional requirements for TLS
There are different requirements of TLS for HQI so as to ensure the better education of
the students. The functional requirement is related to installation and configuration of email,
database management and development of web-page. At the same time, installing switches and
routers for the smooth functioning of supporting network is called as the functional requirement
(Burke, 2013). This proves to be effective for each student to get registered in the relatively less
time span and submit their assignment in an effectual manner. Furthermore, unit registration
procedure will be easy for entire college through which it becomes easy for completion of all the
related task. This, in turn, students can seek the advice of available teacher in order to
accomplish their allotted task (Stevenson & Hojati, 2007). Moreover, functional requirement of
the system is that all data should be recorded for the performance of students and advisor.
The non-functional requirements are related to keeping the track on the performance of
the students and assigned advisor of them (Yang, 2006; Van Lamsweerde, 2009). It is supported
with the functional requirement through which HQI can easily maintain its high performance and
ensure the betterment of the students. Therefore, a number of students should have easy access to
the portal or unit for timely completion of their data (Crawford, 2007). Apart from this, the
functional requirement is related to making sure the availability of teacher of advisor for the
guidance of learners (Rao, Savsani & Vakharia, 2012). It proves to be effective for knowledge of
postgraduate and undergraduate learners of HQI.
