The Agile Primer
Pat Kua (July 21, 2008)
Why is everyone talking about agile? What does agile mean? How does it affect me? How is it different from traditional software development? We're going to have a look at the forces that resulted in the agile movement and have a look at the impact this can have on software development. This is an introduction to the values and principles of agile, understanding perhaps some of the ways they manifest into practices.
We'll have some interactive elements in this session, including addressing participant's Hopes and Concerns, and having a go at building the key set of values for Agile Software Development.
This event will be held in the Kilburn Building, University of Manchester at 6:30pm for 7 on Monday July 21, 2008. The venue requires a list of names in advance so, if you'd like to come along, please register. If you have an upcoming.com username that is recognisable as your real name, you can register by saying "I'm coming" on our upcoming.org event page. Otherwise, please fill in this registration form.
We'd like to thank the university for allowing us to use their facilities.
The video recorded on the evening is now up on Vimeo. Thanks Paul for the encoding tips. Unfortunately the video freezes a couple of times - I think it's a problem somewhere in the multiple stages of conversion/encoding - but the audio, the important bit really, carries on.
Patrick's slides are available for you to download (PPSX) or (PDF).
