Digital Activism; Plan Stage

In this stage you will develop a detailed Plan that shows:

  • A logical sequence of work that describes how each of the skills and techniques will be applied; describes the duration of time for each sequence and resources to be used
  • logical steps to take that leads you to creating your chosen product 
  • Justification of any modifications to the design
  • An evaluation of the plan in terms of how realistic, logical, achievable the plan is.
A Gantt chart and the Creation plan are recommended to be used.

The Gantt chart should be realistic, simple and very neat.

Creation Plan should give details of what skills/techniques will be used, what resources will be used, when they will be used and some evaluation of the use.
