More than 20 years after the first publication of the agile manifesto (https://agilemanifesto.org/iso/en/manifesto.html), agile software development is here to stay. At the very least, many companies are tempted by the promise of agile development and flat hierarchies. In this seminar, we will look at different agile methods (Scrum, Kanban, eXtreme Programming, etc.), how they are used in practice, where and why they are deviated from and the technical practices (pair programming, continuous integration, DevOps, etc.) that support the agile way of working.
During this seminar, students are expected to conduct independent research on their chosen topic. Whether the course is booked as a seminar or proseminar has an influence on the requirements:
- Seminar: Here, several good sources (5-10) are to be found and a summary of the results presented. The aim is to work out the current state of research on the basis of a selected research question, identify gaps and contradictions in the research and derive recommendations for practice.
- Proseminar: A good source should be found and presented in detail. Other related works (1-3) should only be discussed in passing for comparison. In the scientific articles presented, the conclusions presented should be critically examined with regard to credibility and relevance.
Suggested reading
The articles available for selection can be found in the resources folder on the KVV page.
