Abstract

Task-driven learning arrangements have shown to be a good learning opportunity for students and provide a viable way for differentiation and self-paced learning. However, existing approaches do not provide an overview of the current status of tasks to the teacher in collaborative settings at the same time. This overview is a crucial prerequisite for effective mentoring and guiding the students. Agile methods have shown to successfully address similar issues for planning, structuring, and visualizing the work in software engineering. In this paper a teaching method based on a Kanban board is presented which transfers the principles and advantages of agile methods to the domain of teaching for classroom orchestration. Furthermore, an offline usable digital prototype for supporting agile teaching scenarios was developed that allows teachers to easily prepare such scenarios and students to document and visualize the current work status. Lessons learned and recommendations for the agile teaching method are discussed. A preliminary study shows that the digital tool supports students and teachers on their learning/teaching path and has a good useability.
