Lesson Plan for Senior Secondary 2 - Information Communication Technology - System Development Cycle Iv

### Lesson Plan: System Development Cycle IV #### Subject: Information Communication Technology (ICT) #### Grade: Senior Secondary 2 #### Topic: System Development Cycle IV --- #### Objective: 1. To understand the concepts and various stages of the System Development Cycle (SDC). 2. To apply the stages of the SDC in real-world project scenarios. 3. To develop analytical and project management skills by working through each stage of the system development process. #### Duration: 90 minutes --- #### Materials Needed: - Projector and Computer with presentation slides (PowerPoint) - Whiteboard and markers - Handouts of the System Development Cycle (SDC) stages - Example project case study for group work - Chart papers and markers for group activities --- #### Lesson Procedure: 1. **Introduction (10 Minutes)** - Greet students and take attendance. - Briefly review the previous lesson. - Introduce today's topic: System Development Cycle IV. 2. **Presentation and Explanation (20 Minutes)** - Use a PowerPoint presentation to explain the System Development Cycle and its stages: - **Systems Planning**: Identifying the need and scope of the project. - **Systems Analysis**: Gathering and analyzing requirements. - **Systems Design**: Creating the architecture of the system. - **Systems Implementation**: Coding, testing, and installing the system. - **Systems Maintenance**: Continuous improvement and management. - Emphasize the importance of each phase and the roles of different stakeholders involved. 3. **Detailed Breakdown (15 Minutes)** - Dive deeper into each stage: - **Systems Planning**: Feasibility study, preliminary investigation. - **Systems Analysis**: Work breakdown structure (WBS), data flow diagrams (DFDs). - **Systems Design**: Interface design, database design, prototyping. - **Systems Implementation**: Coding standards, testing (unit, integration, system). - **Systems Maintenance**: Bug fixing, updates, user training. - Provide real-life examples and show short video clips (if available). 4. **Interactive Discussion (10 Minutes)** - Ask students to share any experience they have with system development, whether in school projects or personal endeavors. - Discuss common challenges faced during system development and possible mitigations. 5. **Group Activity (25 Minutes)** - Divide the class into small groups and provide each group with an example project case study. - Each group will identify which phase of the System Development Cycle they would prioritize first, and outline briefly how they would approach each of the other phases. - Provide chart papers and markers to groups for them to sketch their approach. 6. **Group Presentations (10 Minutes)** - Each group will present their SDC outline to the class. - Encourage questions and constructive criticism from peers and provide feedback. 7. **Recap and Clarification (5 Minutes)** - Summarize the key points discussed during the lesson. - Answer any additional questions from students. 8. **Assignment (5 Minutes)** - Assign a homework task where students are to select a real-world organism or system, analyze its current state, and propose a brief plan according to the System Development Cycle. --- #### Assessment: - Participation in group activity and presentation. - Quality and completeness of the homework assignment. - A short quiz in the next class to review understanding of the System Development Cycle stages and their purposes. --- #### Resources: - O’Brien, J. A., & Marakas, G. M. (2011). Management Information Systems. - Tutorials on System Development Cycle available on Khan Academy and other online resources. - Access to computer labs for practical sessions and further research. --- #### Reflection: - Gather feedback from students on the lesson's structure and content. - Reflect on the effectiveness of the interactive and group activities in reinforcing learning. - Plan to address any gaps or difficulties encountered by students in the next session. --- By the end of the lesson, students should have a clear understanding of each stage of the System Development Cycle and feel confident in applying this knowledge to practical situations.
