Back in February we were tasked with creating a GANTT chart to indicate our plans for this session of the course. The GANTT is submitted can be found here.
Within the GU we were shown Gibbs Reflective Cycle, I will now use it to look back at the tasks I put into my GANTT.

Of these, remarkably every single one of them has been delivered. However, the GANTT chart concluded at the End of April and some of them have only been completed within the past two weeks, hence beyond the projected times.
My feelings on this are that I got the Project Management and Project Planning just about right. Part of the reasons for delays have been due to circumstances outside my control – the strike actions by lecturers cause a delay to our Acoustics classes.
Evaluating my delivery against this plan has been satisfactory.
This is the analysis step.
A logical conclusion is that I am operating within my comfort zones, in planning and delivery against the plan.
No remedial actions are required at this time.
