Agile methodology has taken the software development industry by storm. Everyone wants to be agile, but what does it really mean and how do you achieve agile development? This computer science course cuts beyond the agile methodology hype and teaches you the fundamental agile concepts that span a wide range of methodologies. It analyzes the key agile ideas, their benefits, their limitations, and how best to take advantage of them to enhance your software skills and show employers that you have mastered an essential component of today’s IT industry. The course is divided into six parts: The Agile manifesto and the context of agile methods Agile principles: what key methodological ideas underlie the agile movement? Agile roles: how does agile redefine traditional software jobs and tasks, in particular the manager’s role? Agile practices: what are the concrete techniques that agile teams use to apply these methods? Agile artifacts: what practical tools are essential to the work of agile developers? Agile assessment: among agile ideas, which ones are essentially hyped and useless, which ones are actually harmful, and which ones will truly help you effectively produce high–quality software? Unlike many presentations of agile methods, this course takes a strictly objective view of agile …

A good overview of agile methods from the perspective of a software development express. It covers lightly the Scrum, XP, lean, and Crystal Agil methodologies Principles, Practices, and values.
It attempts to separate the bad, hype, good and brilliant parts of the agile methods.
Very worthy.

This course was a profound experience and taught me new concepts of software engineering. These concepts have such an impact in a professional environment.
The professor is outstanding, he clearly has the abilities to teach students and developers the agile methodologies. I recommend this course to everyone who wants to learn the agile approach.

It seems like a good introduction to Agile in general and to Scrum in particular. The XP part was not that clear to me. Seemed like “I have to show something else even though I don’t really want to” thing. Some of the questions of the quizzes were not explained in the videos. Maybe there was some other material I missed?
I would have preferred to hear more real world examples not just the theory.
