Justify the need for IT system modelling and modelling techniques.
Explain why it is important to model IT system requirements from different perspectives.

Develop models of system data. These models should be either entity relationship models or analysis class models, both with supporting descriptions.
Develop a dynamic model. This model should be either an entity life history showing the effect of events on an entity or a sequence diagram showing the realisation of a use case.
Evaluate selected models against business objectives and system requirements.
Appreciate how the selected models inter-relate with each other.
Describe how the products of analysis feed into the design and development of a system.
