#GuildChat for 9/11/05: Agile Development
Our next #GuildChat takes place Friday, September 11 at 11am PT / 2pm ET. Our topic for this week’s chat is Agile Development.
Agile development is a recent incarnation. Widely used in modified forms in the software development field, for many it is seen as a more efficient and effective approach to development work by teams. But what exactly is it? What are the key elements of an agile approach and when is it the right approach and when might the traditional waterfall approach be best?
In this week’s #GuildChat we’ll explore Agile development and how organizational learning is and can use this methodology to improve both processes and products. We are excited to be joined by Megan Torrance, CEO of TorranceLearning. Megan brings business consulting and project management experience to her instructional design and development work and has creating a top-notch work environment based on trust, flexibility, compassion, and fun. Megan will be presenting at DevLearn this year with her workshop, Agile Project Management for eLearning.
