In a video that plays in a split-screen with your work area, your instructor will walk you through these steps:

1. •

   Examine examples of Gantt charts to become familiar with popular chart styles and types and how they are used in project management.

2. •

   Explore Lucidchart as you launch the application, review the user interface, and create a new file in preparation for creating a Gantt chart.

3. •

   Create the layout of a new Gantt chart by providing a column for each time period and a row for each task.

4. •

   Populate the Gantt chart by adding each task in the correct position on a row and column(s) to indicate time, duration, and dependency on the completion of other tasks.

5. •

   Identify the project team for each task on the Gantt chart by generating a color-coded legend.
