    To complete a Gantt chart which is widely used to keep track of tasks that are in progress, upcoming, or completed.

    Pre-Assignment Instructions:

    1. To prepare you for this assignment, read the module 3 content.
    2. Choose one of the following tools to create your Gantt chart (you are welcome to use any other tool; these are just suggestions):
      1. Excel (you can follow the steps laid out in module 3 notes)
      2. Canva
      3. Venngage
      4. Office Timeline
      5. Creately
    3. Have the “Summary of ENL2019 Assignments for Gantt Chart” ready (see page 2).

    Assignment Tasks:

    1. Create a Gantt chart for the data in the “Summary of ENL2019 Assignments for Gantt Chart” using your tool of choice.
    2. Organize your Gantt Chart by weeks (14) rather than days
    3. It should be visually appealing, so please use colour. You may want to consider copying the Chart from Excel (or other tool) and paste it into Word in order to make it visually appealing
    4. It should fill at least ¾ of a page (landscape orientation)
    5. Provide labels for the horizontal and vertical axis
    6. If you use Excel, please do not submit the data that you used to create the chart, just the chart itself
    7. Put your name directly on the document
    8. Give your document a title (ENL 2019T Gantt Chart is a good one)
    9. Submit your file as a PDF document

    *Note that the data below are taken from the face-to-face (as opposed to the online) program. As an online student, you have access to all assessments right at the start of the course, so there is no “week assigned” for your assessments. Because of this, you will use the information below for this assignment just for the purpose of going through the steps required to make a Gantt Chart.
