ITM4498 Capstone Project paper

Make sure that you meet or exceed the expectations of each line item. Note that just meeting the expectations will not give you an A. You are expected to produce high quality material; the type of material that an employer or a client would expect from you.

In order to help you finalize your project below is an outline of what your final report may include:

1. Cover page
2. Abstract
3. Introduction (state purpose of the report and how it is organized)
4. Business Profile
5. Statement of the Problem
6. Definition of system requirements
7. Systems Analysis (Process diagrams, user case diagrams, data flow diagrams, sequence diagrams, state diagrams)
8. Design (Entity Relationship Diagrams, Database design, network design, web site design)
9. Recommendations
10. Conclusions (include ethical implications or considerations)
11. Works Cited.

Note that all diagramas count toward the 20-25 page requirement. This is not a strict requirement. Quality is worth much more than quantity. Remember the report must follow the style recommendations of the APA. I encourage you to seek help from the Academic Student Center to ensure the report is well written.

On the other hand, all diagrams must include a brief description of their meaning and implications. Diagrams by themselves don't tell the whole story.
