I do not consider that missing a milestone a failure or a success, it is bad but I feel it is a wakeup call that “Hey, you did not achieve the goal you set for completing the project. You have to do something different because what you are doing is not working.” In capstone, we had to write weekly reports that included any missed milestone, if any group missed a milestone their project would be delayed which is bad because we all had deadlines in completing our projects. Missing a milestone is not a failure or success but they can lead to failure or success, depending on the group if the group restrategize their plan by simplifying their goal task they may complete the project. However, if they don’t restrategize and keep missing milestones they will fail because they didn’t complete their project due to constant delays.
