Some guides on working on this assignment:

You may choose to fill the forms for part II using pen and paper. Presentation is not important in part II, only the content, so do not waste time formatting the content in a word processor. The purpose of the having you fill the forms is to assess how well you understand the processes you use to complete this assignment, so that you can learn from them and apply them for future tasks.

Part II (a) is only a plan. You only need to think about how you will approach doing the tasks, without starting any work. Just look at what resources is available to you, think about what you should do, and complete the form. It may turn out you make major adjustments in your methods as you are doing your work - that's OK. The adjustments can all be described in part II (b).
