and Its Remedies
![Page 2: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Importance of English communication for engineering students and the problems faced by them during
academic as well as professional life and its possible
remedies.
Majority of the students in engineering colleges are from rural areas.

They do possess intelligence necessary for getting admission for
higher education but they lag behind in the English communication
competence.
So, during academics and career they face a lot of problems.

To be successful in studies and campus interviews, GD’s, it is important to achieve English communication
competence.

English is the current language of the international business, technology,
aviation, diplomacy,banking, computing, medicines,
engineering and tourism.
About one fifth of people all over the world know more or less about English.
![Page 6: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
It is spoken by 1.8 billion people in the world and the number still increasing.
Almost everysingle university in the world are
conducting scientific studies in English. Total 60% of radio programs are
broadcast in English, more than 70% of the content or address of mailing letters
are written in English.
English plays an important role in the world.
![Page 7: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
English is becoming the world’s language of the 21st century. Most of the world’s population, about 70%
speak English or know it. More than 80% of all stored information in the world is written in English or translated into it. Foreign language skills, and in
particular the English are a good tool in work, school, on vacation, when building a career or promote your
own business.
The man who speaks fluent in English will not get lost in the world where there
are people.
![Page 8: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Engineering is the biggest field of study in the world.
First of all English is a tool that significantly affect engineering students in academic
life. While most of the theories in engineering are taught in English, it
requires to have good English communication competence.
IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH COMMUNICATION FOR ENGINEERING STUDENTS
![Page 9: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
During the job seeking process in interviews, GD’s, it is of crucial
importance to achieve mastery in English proficiency.
After securing the job they are required to work in groups since their task
seldom be solved by an individual.
![Page 10: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
So, being an Engineer requires to co-operate and communicate with
different people from different part of the world.
English is used as the working language to a large extent.
In order to co-ordinate with the colleagues, Engineers have to speak
fluent English.
![Page 11: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
PROBLEMS FACED BY ENGINEERING STUDENTS
In our country ,about 75% students of the engineering are from rural areas and
most of them are coming through regional language medium schools.
No doubt that as they have entered into the engineering colleges,they do possess intelligence i.e. necessary qualification for
higher education and bright future.
![Page 12: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
But, at every walk of life and career English becomes an obstacle in
their way of career.
So, let us examine the reasons which make English as a souring grape for students even today in
this modern era.

BASIC PRINCIPLES FOR CREATING WBSS*
1. A unit of work should appear at only one place in the WBS.2. The work content of a WBS item is the sum of the WBS items
below it.3. A WBS item is the responsibility of only one individual, even
though many people may be working on it.4. The WBS must be consistent with the way in which work is
actually going to be performed; it should serve the project team first and other purposes only if practical.
5. Project team members should be involved in developing the WBS to ensure consistency and buy-in.
6. Each WBS item must be documented to ensure accurate understanding of the scope of work included and not included in that item.
7. The WBS must be a flexible tool to accommodate inevitable changes while properly maintaining control of the work content in the project according to the scope statement.

SAMPLE GANTT CHART
The WBS is on the left, and each task’s start and finish date are shown on the right using a calendar timescale. Early Gantt Charts, first used in 1917, were drawn by hand.
![Page 21: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
SAMPLE NETWORK DIAGRAM
Each box is a project task from the WBS. Arrows show dependenciesbetween tasks. The bolded tasks are on the critical path. If any tasks on thecritical path take longer than planned, the whole project will slip unless something is done. Network diagrams were first used in 1958 on the Navy Polaris project, before project management software was available.

PROJECT TIME MANAGEMENT PROCESSES
Project time management involves the processes required to ensure timely completion of a project. Processes include:Activity definitionActivity sequencingActivity duration estimatingSchedule developmentSchedule control
![Page 24: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ACTIVITY DEFINITION Project schedules grow out of the basic
document that initiate a projectProject charter includes start and end
dates and budget informationScope statement and WBS help define
what will be done Activity definition involves developing a
more detailed WBS and supporting explanations to understand all the work to be done so you can develop realistic duration estimates
![Page 25: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
ACTIVITY SEQUENCING
Involves reviewing activities and determining dependenciesMandatory dependencies: inherent in the
nature of the work; hard logicDiscretionary dependencies: defined by the
project team; soft logicExternal dependencies: involve relationships
between project and non-project activities You must determine dependencies in
order to use critical path analysis
![Page 26: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
PROJECT NETWORK DIAGRAMS Project network diagrams are the
preferred technique for showing activity sequencing
A project network diagram is a schematic display of the logical relationships among, or sequencing of, project activities
![Page 27: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

PRECEDENCE DIAGRAMMING METHOD (PDM)
Activities are represented by boxes Arrows show relationships between
activities Better at showing different types of
dependencies

ACTIVITY DURATION ESTIMATING
After defining activities and determining their sequence, the next step in time management is duration estimating
Duration includes the actual amount of time worked on an activity plus elapsed time
Effort is the number of workdays or work hours required to complete a task. Effort does not equal duration
People doing the work should help create estimates, and an expert should review them
![Page 32: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
SCHEDULE DEVELOPMENT
Schedule development uses results of the other time management processes to determine the start and end date of the project and its activities
Ultimate goal is to create a realistic project schedule that provides a basis for monitoring project progress for the time dimension of the project
Important tools and techniques include Gantt charts, PERT analysis, critical path analysis, and critical chain scheduling
![Page 33: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
GANTT CHARTS
Gantt charts provide a standard format for displaying project schedule information by listing project activities and their corresponding start and finish dates in a calendar format
Symbols include:A black diamond: milestones or significant events
on a project with zero durationThick black bars: summary tasksLighter horizontal bars: tasksArrows: dependencies between tasks
![Page 34: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

MILESTONES Milestones are significant events on a
project that normally have zero duration You can follow the SMART criteria in
developing milestones that are: Specific Measurable Assignable Realistic Time-framed

CRITICAL PATH METHOD (CPM)
CPM is a project network analysis technique used to predict total project duration
A critical path for a project is the series of activities that determines the earliest time by which the project can be completed
The critical path is the longest path through the network diagram and has the least amount of slack or float
![Page 39: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
FINDING THE CRITICAL PATH First develop a good project network
diagram Add the durations for all activities on
each path through the project network diagram
The longest path is the critical path
![Page 40: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
SIMPLE EXAMPLE OF DETERMINING THE CRITICAL PATH Consider the following project network
diagram. Assume all times are in days.

A=2 B=5C=2
D=71 6
F=2
E=1

a. How many paths are on this network diagram?
b. How long is each path?
c. Which is the critical path?
d. What is the shortest amount of time needed to complete this project?

DETERMINING THE CRITICAL PATH FOR PROJECT X
![Page 42: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
MORE ON THE CRITICAL PATH
If one or more activities on the critical path takes longer than planned, the whole project schedule will slip unless corrective action is taken
Misconceptions:The critical path is not the one with all the critical
activities; it only accounts for time. There can be more than one critical path if the
lengths of two or more paths are the sameThe critical path can change as the project
progresses
![Page 43: Cs Seminar](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5695d0181a28ab9b0290f454/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
USING CRITICAL PATH ANALYSIS TO MAKE SCHEDULE TRADE-OFFS
Knowing the critical path helps you make schedule trade-offs
Free slack or free float is the amount of time an activity can be delayed without delaying the early start of any immediately following activities
Total slack or total float is the amount of time an activity may be delayed from its early start without delaying the planned project finish date
A forward pass through the network diagram determines the early start and finish dates
A backward pass determines the late start and finish dates
