“…The video learning development method used in this study is agile methodology as a standard for developing a new learning environment. Agile development methods are adapted to the need for new technology development to open up new possibilities (Otero et al, 2020). The development aimed at building easier access to information.…”

The research aims to see effectiveness through the perception of optimized physics learning web design through the development of on-demand microlearning video download facilities in diverse areas and access devices. Physics learning through web design, despite success in a variety of online learning methods, has major constraints on personalized learning. Individually, students have a variety of access devices and are in areas with a variable learning environment topology towards internet access. Agile development methods were developed to develop on-demand video download features on the physical learning web, and the development results were tested on MI-Ar Raudhah students based on characteristic compatibility. The development of the on-demand and simplified physical learning video download feature using microlearning is very effective for accessing students with varied Internet access devices and topologies.

“…With the increasing spread of agile methods in practice, more and more researchers and lecturers were interested in using agile methods in an educational context. The increasing interest is shown by several studies (e.g., [24], [25]). According to Otero et al, models such as Scrum or Extreme Programming are being adapted in university teaching and, in particular, the area of computer science [24].…”

According to Otero et al, models such as Scrum or Extreme Programming are being adapted in university teaching and, in particular, the area of computer science [24]. Mahnic shows in his literature overview the different facets of Scrum in educational contexts and how the agile method is applied in the classroom in order to be able to include real world problems and challenges [19].…”

“…The increasing usage of agile methods in practice has led to more and more integration into teaching in the fields of engineering, computer science, or information systems. Lecturers adapted agile methods such as Scrum or XP for the educational context and used them in projects with students or lab courses (e.g., [8], [24]). In addition to applying methods that are of high relevance for the student's professional future, agile methods offer further advantages in teaching [16].…”

This Innovative Practice Full Paper presents our learnings of the process to perform a Master of Science class with eduScrum integrating real world problems as projects. We prepared, performed, and evaluated an agile educational concept for the new Master of Science program Digital Transformation organized and provided by the department of business computing at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts -Hochschule Hannover in Germany. The course deals with innovative methodologies of agile project management and is attended by 25 students. We performed the class due the summer term in 2019 and 2020 as a teaching pair. The eduScrum method has been used in different educational contexts, including higher education. During the approach preparation, we decided to use challenges, problems, or questions from the industry. Thus, we acquired four companies and prepared in coordination with them dedicated project descriptions. Each project description was refined in the form of a backlog (list of requirements). We divided the class into four eduScrum teams, one team for each project. The subdivision of the class was done randomly. Since we wanted to integrate realistic projects into industry partners' implementation, we decided to adapt the eduScrum approach. The eduScrum teams were challenged with different projects, e.g., analyzing a dedicated phenomenon in a real project or creating a theoretical model for a company's new project management approach. We present our experiences of the whole process to prepare, perform and evaluate an agile educational approach combined with projects from practice. We found, that the students value the agile method using real world problems. However, the results are mainly based on the summer term 2019, this paper also includes our learnings from virtual distance teaching during the Covid 19 pandemic in summer term 2020. The paper contributes to the distribution of methods for higher education teaching in the classroom and distance learning.

“…Another research by Fronza et al (2019), also within the programming environment, demonstrated that practices used in the classroom can be executed following the tools of Agile methodologies. Otero et al (2020) conducted a comprehensive analysis of the increase of agile methodologies in the classroom. In their study they identified that it helps student self-regulation and the teacher realize that it is a useful tool to use.…”

Objective: The main aim is to combine two methodologies, case studies and agile methodologies, in order to see how it influences team management acquiring knowledge on conflict resolution to achieve a higher degree of employability and approach to the working environment. Methodology: During the 2021–2022 and 2022–2023, agile methodology was introduced for the first time in the subject “Talent Management and Development” at University of Alcalá to solve business cases focused on everyday problems that arise in company departments for a sample of a total of 52 young professionals. A questionnaire comprising a total of 16 variables was developed. Smart PLS 4.0 was used to analyse the sample results. Results: As results, we evaluated the impact and non-impact factors on the dependent variable “closer vision to the world of work”, through two mediating variables, “usefulness to better understand the syllabus” and “achievement of objectives”. In addition, it was identified that the participants were receptive to the new methodology. Practical implications: The agile methodology is offered as a means to develop key competences and bring the business world closer to the university classroom. On the academic side, this study can help teachers to assess the transversal competences. Originality: It is a new tool implemented among undergraduate students. It is also a new concept that is widely used in business environments and which is useful for students to get to know it and begin to internalize it in their way of working and team building.
