For the above task, I opted for applying the learned concepts in a project:
Planning and implementing a student-led project/initiative in school

The class taught me the necessity of having a clear framework, defined goals, and effective communication even in small tasks.

1. SMART Goals

In the past, while undertaking projects, I used to define my desired goals in a rather vague way. Now I know how important is defining SMART goals:

Specific: Arrange an excellent student initiative
Measurable: Have at least 80% participation/positive response rate
Achievable: With the help of available resources in school within a period of 3-4 weeks
Relevant: Is aligned with student engagement/community-building initiatives
Time-bound: Completing the process within a 3-4 week time limit

It helps to make all your decisions easy during the project.

2. Creating an In-depth Plan for the Project

Taking into account the workflow described during the classes, I divided the project into separate stages:

Planning stage

Setting objectives and theme of the project
Getting permission from the school administration
Determination of participants

Preparation stage

Role assignment
Provision of resources
Setting deadlines for completing tasks

Implementation stage

Project implementation
Monitoring its progress
Quick problem solving

Wrapping up stage

Feedback gathering
Discussion on success and shortcomings of the project

Division of the project process into phases helped to manage the task.

3. Identifying Stakeholders and Establishing Communication

One of the important lessons learned from the lesson is the necessity to maintain proper communication with stakeholders.

For my project, the following stakeholders should be considered:

Teachers or tutors
Participants (students)
Team members responsible for project organization

My strategy of communication will be as follows:

Sending regular weekly reports
Instructions on role-playing and expectations
Immediate contact in case any problem occurs

4. Scheduling Timeline and Accountability

The two elements in an effective flow process were found to be:

A realistic timeline (avoid procrastination at all costs)
Accountability (awareness of individual responsibility)

Instead of working alone in every aspect of the project, I would:

Divide responsibilities according to ability
Have process checks included in the plan

5. Evaluation and Continuous Improvement

The lesson I have learned from this class is how to document the lessons learned during the process of completion.

Once the project is completed, I will:

Gather opinions of participants and project team members
Find out what was done right
Find out areas requiring improvement

This ensures future success.

Conclusion

I have learned that managing a project doesn't need to be complicated to be successful. Defining goals, strategic planning, communication, and constant evaluation are key to project management in my opinion.

I have learned that simply changing minor aspects of my process can greatly improve the results of my project management tasks.
