PER WEEK I – Subject Description: This course offers BSIT students the opportunity to demonstrate that they can indeed meet the levels of performance expected of an IT  Professional. It includes project proposal, feasibility studies, intellectual property, teamwork, budget, schedule, and management, professional communications (i.e. reports, presentations, planning, design, implementation, deployment, and testing. Moreover, the Capstone Project is a way of determining whether students are ready to graduate. II – Goals and Objectives: At the end of the course, the student should be able to: 1. Show mastery and efficiency in software development. – To analyze a current system and to propose a design (capstone project) for the improvement of the system. – To develop and implement the proposed capstone project. 2. Practice professionalism in carrying out task within a period of time. – To effectively and efficiently perform duties and responsibilities to meet the needs of a client. III – Instructional Modes 1. Lecture Method using the sequential (logical presentation of topics) and transitional (in-depth treatment of the topics) technique. 2. Discussion – Graded and ungraded recitation technique. Make students focus their attention on certain set of questions about a specific topic. 3. Activity Method – Students are energized to action to accomplish a learning (laboratory) activity. 4. Inductive Method – Process of generalizing that is from simplex to complex. 5. Investigative Method –using the problem solving technique.
