Evaluate the quality of data:
The article is written concisely and is presented in a structured and easy to understand manner. It explains the definition and importance of project management methodologies first. Further, it explains how to choose the best methodology for your project. The article proceeds to list out some of the important terms and concepts of seven project management methodology including Agile, Scrum, Kanban, Lean, Waterfall, Six Sigma and also includes PMBOK set of guidelines for project management. Although it only includes one visual representation of the Kanban Board, the article is very verbose. Personally, reading the article does give a very good idea of the core concepts of the different methodologies listed, but to gain in-depth knowledge I wouldn’t recommend this source. Thus, for my report assignment, I’ll definitely need to work on finding more sources.
