    Use of Gamification to Teach Agile Values and Collaboration: A multi-week Scrum simulation project in an undergraduate software engineering course
    (ACM, 2017) Kropp, Martin; Hof, Sonja; Landolt, Marla [in: ITiCSE' 17 Proceedings of the 2017 ACM Conference on Innovation and Technology in Computer Science Education]
    Collaboration and communication are key to successful agile software development. Respect, openness, transparency and trust are core Agile values. However studies show, that there is a shortage of software developers with these skills. How can we teach these skills to software engineering students' This paper presents the approach of using a multi-week Scrum Paper City simulation game. The course execution was accompanied by a thorough evaluation to find out how effective this approach is compared to traditional ex-cathedra teaching. While the evaluation shows some aspects to be improved, it clearly shows that students like to experience the Agile approach directly in a project, that they enjoy more fun, and the collaboration in the team.

    aWall: Agile Collaboration using Large Digital Multi-Touch Cardwalls
    (12/2016) Anslow, Craig; Burkhard, Roger; Kropp, Martin; Mateescu, Magdalena; Vischi, Dario; Zahn, Carmen [in: IMVS Fokus Report]
    Despite the availability of many digital agile board tools, most co-located agile software teams still use physical cardboards for their daily standup meetings. This is due to the fact that existing digital agile boards lacks supporting a collaborative workspace, direct interaction for the whole team in meetings, or making project information directly visible. In this paper we present aWall, a digital agile cardwall designed for the highly collaborative agile work style using large multi-touch wall displays. The effectiveness of aWall was evaluated in a user study with eleven software practitioners. Our findings indicate that aWall enables and encourages team work due to the large size of the wall, accessibility and visibility of large amounts of information, and possibility of customization of the interface. Based on this work, we suggest that augmenting digital cardwalls with large interactive touch technology and new interaction concepts is a useful way to support effective collaborative agile software development processes.

    Teaching Agile Collaboration Skills in the Classroom
    (IEEE, 2016) Kropp, Martin; Meier, Andreas; Biddle, Robert [in: The 29th IEEE International Conference on Software Engineering Education and Training (CSEET 2016)]
    Agile methodologies like Scrum or Extreme Programming have come a long way over the last fifteen years. Recent quantitative studies show that many companies have successfully adopted agile methodologies. It was found that in agile software development, experience leads to collaboration. It could also be shown that successful professional agile teams tend to use more collaboration practices. In 2013, the new Computer Science studies at the University of Applied Sciences were started. For this, a new curriculum was developed. This paper presents and discusses the lectures, labs and educational software projects in the programming and software engineering modules. It is discussed how agile collaboration and collaboration practices can be taught in the classroom. For this, the setup and observations of an agile student project are presented and different online collaboration tools are discussed. It is argued that software engineering education benefits significantly from embracing the modern collaboration tools the Internet has made available.

    Experience Report of Teaching Agile Collaboration and Values: Agile Software Development in Large Student Teams
    (IEEE, 2016) Kropp, Martin; Meier, Andreas; Perellano, Gerald [in: The 29th IEEE Conference on Software Engineering Education and Training (CSEE&T 2016)]
    Communication and collaboration are central skills for agile development. Trust, openness, transparency and equality are core agile values and there is a shortage of software developers with these skills. How can we teach software engineering so that students get these skills together with the needed technical competences? This paper presents and discusses the setup of an innovative agile educational student project. The didactical concept is based on results from several industry studies, which give insight into the required competencies of agile software developers.
