As a part of my studies at the University of Hildesheim I took part in a lecture on Programming in Java. To finish this lecture we will have to write a program in groups of three people. Me and my coleagues decided to hand in an own proposal for a project, because the choice of available projects seemed to be rather poor. So our project will be building a Scrum project management tool.
The project - what is Scrum?
Scrum is an agile project management method that is continuously becoming popular among companies, especially those concerned with software development. I first read about this method when Acquia, the company of Drupal leader Dries Buytaert, announced that they had hired a Scrum expert for their project management. My next "experience" with Scrum was reading about it at a Project Management Blog, which also linked to a brilliant video (Scrum in under 10 minutes). If you want to learn more about Scrum watch this video! And finally Scrum is heavily based on the theoretical work of Nonaka, who is one of the most famous scientists in knowledge management and thus been a large part of my Bachelor thesis on "Knowledge Codification".
