Many new software development methods such as agile and iterative development require closer communication among developers compared to traditional ones. However today, many IT engineers are not good at communicating with others. Therefore, we are developing software engineer education curriculum with enhancement of communication skills (more specifically, consensus-building skills) in mind. We are adopting case-centered methods, in which both software development process and importance of consensus can be understood through actual experiences. For evaluation, we have applied our educational case method to six computer science undergraduates, composed in two groups of three persons each. As the result, consensus-building workshop in our curriculum was effective in achieving closer communication.
近年、アジャイルや反復開発など緊密なコミュニケーションを前提とする開発手法が普及してきている。しかし、他者とのコミュニケーションを拒むソフトウェア技術者の存在をはじめ、現在 のソフトウェア業界ではコミュニケーションスキルの向上は必ずしも実現されていない。そこで筆者らは、新人に対しコミュニケーションスキル、特に合意形成スキルを重視した技術者教育を行うことが重要だと考え、教育手法を設計・試行している。具体的には、開発プロセスをこなす中で合意形成の重要性を体験できるような、ケース中心の教育手法を採用している。その検証のため、大学4年生6名に集まってもらい、それぞれ3名のグループに分かれ、ケースを基に開発を進める実験を行った。その結果、コンセンサスを体感するワークショップを行う事で、コミュニケーションをより密にする開発を行う事が出来ることを確認した。
This document discusses agile software development practices and events. It covers topics like test-driven development, pair programming, and agile conferences held between 2009-2011 in Japan. Meeting notes are provided on various agile techniques and retrospective sessions. Trends are examined in agile adoption rates among Japanese companies over time.
The document is comprised of the date "Saturday, January 29, 2011" repeated numerous times over multiple pages. It also includes various simple charts showing percentages ranging from 0-100. However, there is no other substantive information or context provided.
The document discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. It notes that meditation can help calm the mind and body by lowering heart rate and easing muscle tension. Regular meditation of 10-20 minutes per day is recommended to experience stress-relieving benefits.
Scrum is a framework for surfacing organizational dysfunction through roles like Product Owner and ScrumMaster, ceremonies like sprints and daily standups, and artifacts like product and sprint backlogs. The document discusses how scrum is a way of thinking and state of mind that can transform a workplace into one filled with innovation, camaraderie, and excitement through being responsible for one's own work. Adopting a scrum mindset through imagination can deliver high quality work frequently to delighted customers.
