team evaluation, implementation, tools, design, linear data structures, program design, comments, documentation, programming language basics, data types and variables, tools, research, problem solving

TEAM DESIGN DOCUMENT
Technical Task: Most real-world software development projects involve working as a team.
Professional Setting: Students work for a software company.
Professional Role: Students are members
Deliverable: Design document.
Real-world Audience: A project manager.
How the Audience will USE the students' communication: The project manager will use the students' design document to do the following: (1) Develop a plan for completing the project, and (2) Determine whether the team is capable of completing the project.
Additional Notes: Whether it is working with other developers, business people, managers, customers, or users, you must be able to adapt to different personalities and deliver a working product that meets the customer’s requirements.


ADDITIONAL SCENARIO:
Also, as a software developer in the work force, you may have to do some research to find a solution to a problem. In this assignment, you will be given a task (handling of the probability of a customer arriving) for which there is not a solution in your textbook. For example, this will require you to read other resources (such as the internet) to understand how to do random number generation.

ADDITIONAL SCENARIO:
In addition, as a software developer in the work force, you may have to do some research to find a solution to a problem. In this assignment, you will be given a sub-task (handling of the probability of an airplane arriving or taking off) for which there is not a solution in your textbook. For example, this will require you to read other resources (such as the internet) to understand how to do random number generation.
