Assignment 4: VoIP Part 2 (Gantt and PERT Charts)
Due Week 6 and worth 80 points
Update the Microsoft Project file you created in Assignment 3: VoIP Part 2 (Work Breakdown Structure) with the following changes:
Set property values to denote progress in at least fifteen (15) of the line items.
Set properties so that at least one (1) of the main tasks is behind schedule.
Create a Gantt chart for your project.
Take a screenshot of the Gantt chart which can later be inserted into your written paper.
Create a PERT diagram that identifies the critical path.
Take a screenshot of the PERT chart which can later be inserted into your written paper.
Note: If you need a tutorial on taking a screen shot, visit one of the following locations: (PC users: http://www.take-a-screenshot.org/) (MAC users: http://binged.it/1xriOcN).
Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:
Compare and contrast the information that one receives from a Gantt chart, versus that of a PERT diagram.
Examine the advantages of using a Gantt chart over a PERT chart and vice versa. Determine when it is appropriate to use one over the other. Justify your response.
Assess the importance of the critical path in project management.
Insert the screenshots of the Gantt and PERT charts you created based on the provided criteria. Elaborate on the status of the VoIP deployment project based on the updated information. Note: The graphical representations do not count toward the overall page requirement.
Use at least two (2) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.
Import completed diagrams, charts, or screenshots into the Word document before the paper is submitted.
The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:
Distinguish among various time management techniques such as CPM, Gantt charts, and the PERT method.
Use project management and graphic software to plan and manage a project throughout the project life cycle.

Problem Set 2 [- 2 pts/day late]
1. In Grave’s Disease, hyperthyroidism is produced by an IgG that causes prolonged activation of the TSH receptors and results in excessive secretion of T3 and T4. Explain why the negative feedback mechanism does not work in this disease. Reference an internet source (URL) or book (5 points).
2. Chromatographic assay reveals that the total amount of T3 in the blood is 10 μg. You find that the various bound forms of the hormone are:
T3(free) = 0.5%
T3 ~ albumin = 12 %
T3~TBG = 69 %
and T3~pro-albumin = 18.5 %
Target tissue: heart whose Bmax of T3 receptors = 76 fmol of T3 receptor/mg protein (1 fmol = 10-15 mol), where you have 100 μg protein (total protein of which T3 receptors makes only a tiny fraction) in your heart assay. MW = 68 kDal = 68,000 g/mol [Dasmalopatra et al., Receptor, 2(4):213-223, 1992]. This reference is only for the MW of T3 receptor, and not for the solution to this question. Note: You won’t need the MW of T3 because you already have the amount in g.
This is another intuition question, a conceptual question. So, don’t get all caught up in equations. If you had freshman chemistry or physics, then you can solve the following:
Calculate the amount (in g) of available T3 and its receptor (also in g). How do the 2 amounts compare? Will Bmax be reached (10 points)?

Ethical and Legal Issues
[Pin It]
DUE WEDNESDAY BY 9PM NEW YORK TIME APA FORMAT 1-2 Page, Not includeing the Reference page and Title Page
High moral standards and lawful procedures are an integral part of resource development. It is important that nonprofit organizations cultivate, obtain, and use donor gifts in ways that are ethical and legal. For instance, when an organization receives a donation for a specific purpose, it is ethically bound to spend the funds in that way. Donors expect organizations to use their gifts in ways that further the mission of the organization in an ethical and lawful manner. In addition, leaders of nonprofit organizations must be aware of and follow all laws related to gift reporting.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the article “Foundation Codes of Ethics: Why Do They Matter, What Are They, and How Are They Relevant to Philanthropy?” Think about how you might identify an ethical issue at a nonprofit organization.
Review the article “Doing Well by Doing Right: A Fundraiser’s Guide to Ethical Decision-Making,” paying attention to ethical decision-making models that might be used to solve ethical dilemmas.
Reflect on the nonprofit organization you are using for your Final Project. Identify at least one ethical issue and one legal issue you might encounter in this organization related to resource development.
Review the Association of Fundraising Professionals’ “Code of Ethical Principles and Standards,” and think about specific ethical principles and/or standards you might apply to address the ethical issue you identified.
Using the Walden Library, another library, or the Internet, research laws that apply to nonprofits. Consider specific laws related to resource development and think about which ones might address the legal issue you identified.
THE ASSIGNMENT
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Wednesday a brief description of the nonprofit organization: Young Life
Describe at least one ethical issue and one legal issue related to resource development that you might encounter in your nonprofit organization, and then explain how you would address each. Be sure to include ethical principles and/or standards and laws that apply.
