Evaluation of Plan

Evaluation of Plan

1. Will you be able to complete your design with the plan you have made? Why / why not?

I feel I have planned my design well and should be able to complete it successfully according to schedule.

2. Will you be able to complete your design with the time limit that you have? Why why not?

I think there is enough time allowed in the plan if I fall behind a little to still complete the project.  If I am ahead of track then it gives me more time to progress to the other parts and double check my work.

3. Which sections of your planning will take the most time? Explain why.

The part that would take the most time will be the research.  There is a lot of information on the web and finding good information can take time.  Possibly also when weighing up the conclusion.

4. Which sections of your planning will be the easiest to complete? Explain why.

I think the image gathering and the references will be the easiest to complete.

5. Which sections of your planning will be the most difficult to complete? Explain why.

Constructing the plan and the research will probably be the most difficult elements.  Firstly, trying to estimate the activities and times for the lessons as I have not done this level of structuring before. Secondly, finding good research material for and against GM foods.

6. Will you be able to complete your work according to your plan or do you think you will have to make some changes? Explain your answer


I believe I have structured the plan to accommodate some minor setbacks.  For instance, there is time available to allow extra research if required or get ahead by moving on to the next activity.  Finally, there should be time in the proof checking stage to fix anything that needs to be changed.
