You Don't Have To Be A Rocket Scientist

ABSTRACT

Using a project management lens and agile methodologies to enhance student employability skills and innovation Society values the vital role scientists and engineers play in solving urgent, real-world problems such as developing COVID-19 vaccines. The NGSS framework for Engineering Design articulates specific practices and disciplinary core ideas that work in conjunction with other science standards to equip today's youth to be solvers of tomorrow's problems asking questions, defining problems, and developing and optimizing solutions (NGSS Lead States 2013). The Agile framework and classroom application Although Agile methods maximize team efficiency and the spirit of failing fast as an industry standard, teachers are generally not formally experienced with its processes and nomenclature. Benefits of sprint planning are that each student leaves the meeting knowing what specific priorities the team is responsible to complete together.
