Question
I have a project proposal due in class tomorrow and need help with what needs to be done. My topic is Blackboard for Texas Tech is a massively important tool and is full of resources and is useful as a means of connecting to book vendors and their resources. It is used by students and professors throughout the Texas Tech System. Unfortunately, due to issues of connectability and a poor interface, much of Blackboard’s value goes overlooked or even undiscovered by end users.
Our solution is to make an interface that is far easier to use by being more visually appealing, less cluttered and by making resources easier to use. Blackboard is largely required by professors but many students only use it the least amount possible to accomplish their task. Many professors even opt to use their own websites or other resources altogether. This leaves lots of room for growth. By making it easier to use, many more students will take full advantage of the resources available to them and likewise, professors will use BB as their primary website.
7. Alternatives [Describe here any alternative solutions that you can think of and why you choose not to use those solutions.]
Example:
Creditors have three methods that are offered by the BNC when receiving bankruptcy notifications electronically. These methods are e-mail, fax and EDI. We have found that EDI is the only acceptable method for Regional Home Loan to receive there notices. Internet e-mail is preferred for smaller creditors who want to receive notices electronically but do not want an automated process. Fax is for recipients who do not want to receive notices electronically, but want to eliminate mail pieces. This method is also preferred by smaller creditors. EDI is needed for high volume recipients that received 200 or more notices per week and want to automatically process data using computer database to computer database transfers. Our team concludes that EDI process has the most beneficial results for Regional.
8. Terms, Conditions and Assumptions
Example:
The amounts quoted here are good for 14 business days from receipt of this proposal. The BDS team is not responsible for any problems that might arise as a result of or subsequent to the audit being proposed herein. The BDS team cannot enforce its recommendations and therefore cannot assume any liability relative to the audit it has performed. It is assumed that the customer’s responsibilities will be fulfilled as detailed in this document. It is guaranteed that the BDS team will fulfill the task of this project as listed in the proposal within the given duration and cost unless customer revisions are made.
10. References (Clients) [List important clients, stating what you do for them and how long you have done it]
Example:
United SuperMarkets (George Clooney, CIO). In 2014, we built various mobile apps for Android, iOS, Windows that utilized their pricing and marketing technologies.

Explanation / Answer
Using technology in todays class room is a given.Far gone are the days when slideshow presentations grab more attension.We live in the age where blogs,chat rooms and podcasts are common tools ,yet a class room can still thrive when stripped down to the basics, chalk and a chalk board.visual reinforcement like diagrams can be displayed on a chalk board and can grab much attension of the students.Its also useful for class room management cause it requires light.Visual aids that require light off hinder the teachers ability to monitor students behavior.
EDI replaces fax and email in such cases fax fails in high cost of processing of the order and email failed in slow down of the processing of documents.Instead EDI documents can flow straight through to the appropriate application on the receivers computer.
In the latest technological world there are alternatives for EDI are seeburger,extol,sterling integrator,GXS,web methods and SAP PI etc can be used.
