Matthew Hodgson commented on Anders Ramsay's blog post 'Why Agile Needs to Start in Academia'
It's the way knowledge has been passed down for centuries. It's the gatekeeper model where knowledge is believed to be held by important academics, classified, categorised, segregated and taught in classrooms. So long as academia continues to focus…

Our focus will be on the relationship between design, development and testing, which is very separate in traditional projects, but often highly integrated in Agile projects. The relationship between UX and QA has not been stressed enough, and might…

Did this event planning ever result in a retreat? If not, how about kicking something off over drinks, or a dinner or perhaps more ambitiously anun-conference?

Have you perhaps developed a new technique, tool, or process for integrating Agile and UX?

I am collecting case studies for my book and would love to hear from you. Any case studies used can be made anonymous at your request (i.e. project, company, and team member names will be re… Continue
