Apart from project management, where else can idea/mind mapping be used?

How does linking a requirement to a business objective add value?

Which brainstorming technique involves a facilitator summarizing all responses and recirculating them back to experts?

What is the main purpose of using a requirements management plan?

Which tool is commonly used to trace and track requirements throughout a project?

What is the key to efficient decomposition in a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)?

What does excessive decomposition of work in a WBS lead to?

What is the lowest level of decomposition in a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)?

Which concept refers to handling deliverables that cannot be fully decomposed due to lack of details?

How are lower-level components verified during the decomposition process?

What is a technique for subdividing project deliverables into smaller, manageable tasks called work packages?

What is a hierarchical structure with work packages at the lowest level of each branch?

What can be used as a starting point for creating the WBS to avoid duplicating work?

In the context of creating a WBS, what are the lines and boxes referred to as in the hierarchical structure?

Which technique involves preparing templates to be used as a starting point for the WBS?

What decision-making method involves a single person having the authority to make the decision?

Which decision-making method requires a decision to be supported by more than 50% of the group members?

What is the decision-making method where the alternative with the most support wins, even if it does not have a majority?

What is a prototype primarily used for in organizations?

In group decision-making, what method requires unanimous agreement for a decision to be made?

What is the purpose of using observations as a technique in collecting requirements?

Which document contains information about the influence level of stakeholders?

What is the main purpose of job shadowing as a technique in collecting requirements?

Which technique involves gathering requirements by directly observing users using the product or performing the process?

What type of technique involves a group of individuals coming together to generate and prioritize ideas?

In the context of collecting requirements, what is the main purpose of group creativity techniques?

Which technique involves watching users interact with the product or process in the real world?

'Brainstorming' is a technique that primarily focuses on:

'Affinity diagram' is a technique that is primarily used for:

Which technique involves visually representing ideas and concepts to show relationships between them?

Product analysis involves techniques such as product breakdown, requirements analysis, and system engineering.

Facilitated workshops are not used in defining the project scope.

Expert judgment is not utilized in developing parts of the detailed project scope.

The project scope statement is not considered a component of the baseline used to manage change requests.

The output of the Define Scope process does not require any approved changes or updates to project documents.

Interviews are typically performed by asking predetermined and on-the-spot questions.

Questionnaires and surveys are more suitable when you want to cover a large number of respondents quickly.

A facilitated workshop focuses on bringing together cross-functional stakeholders to define product requirements.

Focus groups consist of prequalified individuals brought together to learn about their opinions and attitudes about a product.

A moderator in a focus group facilitates interactive discussions to make the experience more conversational than one-on-one interviews.

Decomposition is a technique for combining project deliverables into larger tasks.

Organizational process assets such as previous project files are not helpful in creating the WBS.

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is a hierarchical structure with work packages at the highest level of each branch.

Different organizations may generate a WBS in the same way based on their needs.

Templates can be used as a starting point for WBS to prevent the duplication of work.

The Delphi technique involves experts sharing their ideas and preferences anonymously.

Brainstorming is a technique primarily used in project management only.

Idea/mind mapping is a group brainstorming technique.

The nominal group technique involves ranking ideas generated by voting.

Facilitated workshops focus on idea/mind mapping as the main technique for requirements collection.

In creating a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), excessive decomposition can lead to inefficient use of management and other resources.

During decomposition, work components are defined in terms of how the project work will be executed and controlled.

Product analysis may involve techniques like product breakdown, requirements analysis, and system engineering.

Expert judgment is not utilized in developing parts of the detailed project scope.

Facilitated workshops involve techniques such as Mind Mapping to visually represent ideas and concepts.

Observations is a technique where requirements are gathered by directly observing the user using the product or performing the process.

Focus groups are primarily used to generate and prioritize ideas individually.

Facilitated workshops do not involve bringing cross-functional stakeholders together to define product requirements.

Expert judgment is commonly utilized in developing parts of the detailed project scope.

Product analysis involves techniques such as system engineering, requirements analysis, and brainstorming.

Requirements analysis is a technique that visually represents ideas and concepts.

System analysis is mainly used for handling deliverables that can be fully decomposed due to lack of details.

In facilitated workshops, group creativity techniques are not used to identify project and product requirements.

A moderator in a focus group facilitates interactive discussions to make the experience more one-on-one like interviews.

Requirements analysis does not involve the process of analyzing, documenting, validating, and managing requirements.

Joint Application Design is abbreviated as JAD in the software development industry.

Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is a technique primarily used in the software development industry.

Affinity diagram is a technique used to classify a large number of ideas into different groups based on criteria.

Brainstorming involves immediate evaluation of ideas to find solutions to a problem.

Joint Application Development workshops focus on bringing together software users and manufacturers.
