The challenge
Plan a fictional 40-person student workshop. Create a schedule, task ownership sheet, materials list and contingency plan. Use invented names and avoid collecting real attendee data.
What to make
- A process map and responsibility table
- A task tracker with dates and dependencies
- A risk register and short review memo
How to approach it
Write the question and scope first. Make a rough version using tools you can access, then ask another person to review it. Keep the original alongside your revision so you can explain the difference. Document any assumptions and use fictional or appropriately licensed public material.
Review your work
Who acts when a task is late? Check that each task has one owner and a visible dependency. Explain how you would measure whether the revised process is better.
Tell the story
Prepare a short case study with the problem, your approach, your output and one improvement you would make next. Label it as a practice project. Explain what you did yourself and identify any templates or outside help you used.
