As your team creates the requirements, design, and planning artifacts for your project, you will need to define the terminology and business processes that are used in those artifacts.
Your team will be provided a definitions document into which you will enter your definitions. Your team should have only one definitions document that is shared by all team members. In the document, you must clearly define all the key terms, concepts, and business rules referred to in your user stories and other design artifacts.
Scored out of 20 possible points.
Half of the points (up to 10) will be awarded based upon the quality of the definitions that are provided. Quality will be assessed based on the clarity and relevance of the definitions. Points will be awarded as the percentage of definitions that are free (or mostly free) of defects.
The other half of points (up to 10) will be awarded based on the grader’s assessment of how complete the set of definitions is. For example, if the grader finds that only a couple definitions were omitted, a small deduction (e.g., -1) might be taken; however, if the grader finds that a larger number of definitions were omitted, a larger deduction (e.g., -4) might be taken.
