Students will start coding almost immediately.  We’ll break into small teams and work in short, intense, iterations typically lasting 30 minutes.  The course is extremely demanding and requires complete focus by the students in order to finish the material.

Teams learn agile by doing agile and practicing development “micro-cylces” where we design – test (first!) – code – reactor until the sprint is complete. 

Teams will walk away with new Team Engineering Norms they can immediately begin to practice.
