Instructor Notes Module 2: Solution Design Using the MSF Introduction This module teaches students the Microsoft ® Solution Framework (MSF) principles that are used in the rest of the course. Students will learn about solution design from the perspective of Microsoft’s advocated design process, the MSF. They will learn the attributes of a good design and how the design process fits into the MSF Process Model by using the output from one milestone as the input for the next milestone. After completing this module, students will be able to: ! Describe the role of design in developing effective solutions to business challenges. ! Describe the MSF Process Model for Application Development. ! Explain the roles of the conceptual, logical, and physical design phases in the design process. ! Explain the benefits of using the MSF Process Model for Application Development. Materials and Preparation This section provides you with the materials and preparation needed to teach this module. Materials To teach this module, you need the following materials: ! Microsoft PowerPoint ® file P02_1608a.ppt ! Module 2, “Solution Design Using the MSF” ! Activity 2.1, “Identifying Design Principles” ! Activity 2.2, “Identifying Design Phases” Presentation: 55 Minutes Activity: 40 Minutes 2 Instructor Notes Module 2: Solution Design Using the MSF 2 Instructor Notes Module 2: Solution Design Using the MSF Preparation To prepare for this module, you should: ! Read all the module materials. ! Complete the activity. ! Read the Library material on the MSF. ! Understand the overall structure of the MSF Design Process. ! Be prepared to explain the processes of conceptual, logical, and physical design by using examples from your own experiences in business solutions design. Instructor Notes Module 2: Solution Design Using the MSF 3 Instructor Notes Module 2: Solution Design Using the MSF 3 Activities Activity 2.1: Identifying Design Principles After completing this activity, students will be able to: ! Demonstrate an understanding of the characteristic of good design. ! To prepare for the activity 1. Complete the activity yourself. 2. Review the suggested solution. This activity provides students with the opportunity to analyze an item and identify features that demonstrate principles of good design. Student will also identify features that appear to be design flaws. You should prepare several items and perform this sort of analysis yourself. You might assign a single item to all groups, and discuss the various perceptions. Alternatively, you might assign each group a different item and explore the perceptions during the class discussion. Another option is having each group select an item that is physically present. Some items to consider are: ! automated teller machine (ATM) ! cellular phone ! automobile dashboard ! elevator Questions to Ask Students Prepare a few questions to ask students to start the class discussion. ! What are some examples of extremely successful designs? ! What are some examples of poor designs? What were the costs associated with the design failure? The answers to this question can range from automobiles that explode, air bags that are dangerous to children, to the flaws in the aerospace program. The costs are numerous as well. Activity 2.2: Identifying Design Phases After completing this activity, students will be able to: ! Demonstrate an understanding of the conceptual, logical, and physical design phases of the MSF Design Process. ! To prepare for the activity 1. Complete the activity yourself. 2. Review the suggested solution. In this activity, students map the design phases to the output of Activity 1.1, “Identifying Design Steps”. Students take what they have identified as design steps and fit them in to the MSF Design Process. 4 Instructor Notes Module 2: Solution Design Using the MSF 4 Instructor Notes Module 2: Solution Design Using the MSF Questions to Ask Students Prepare a few questions to ask students to start the class discussion. Module Strategy Use the following strategy to present this module: ! Design Overview This section provides a basic overview of business solution design. Students learn about well-designed solutions and the cost of poorly designed solutions. Make sure that students understand why design is important to a successful solution. ! Activity 2.1: Identifying Design Principles Use this activity to focus students’ attention on the costs of fixing a bad design and the benefits of investing effort in a good design. ! MSF Design Process This section introduces the MSF Design Process that is used throughout the remainder of the course. Students must have a firm grasp of the concepts of conceptual, logical, and physical design. ! Activity 2.2: Identifying Design Phases Use this activity to solidify students grasp of conceptual, logical, and physical design and the differences between them. Foster discussion and consensus on the mapping of the design steps that students identified in Activity 1.1. ! Benefits of the MSF Design Process This section presents some of the benefits of using the MSF Design Process when designing solutions. Use this section to highlight the benefits, but do not get lost in the details. This is supporting information. . business solutions design.
