General
This course combines problem and case based learning techniques to describe and discuss agile software development as a concept, agile methodology in distributed settings, and coaching of agile teams. The main focus isn't on the details of a particular agile process; instead, students will learn how to think and act in an agile fashion.

For each session, all students must produce material in their learning diary. The material must be published in the learning diary during the same working week as the session (i.e. on Friday of the same week as the session). Students are also expected to comment on each other's diary entries and discuss the topics raised in the diaries. After the last session, students have one week to complete the learning diary, after which new entries will not be considered for grading. These deadlines are firm.
