Here is a suggested coaching syllabus to acquire a foundational understanding of Agile.
The Agile 101 Workshop is intended as an immersive project simulation such as the [[Lego Island Project Sim|Lego Island Activity]], which is always very popular and an entry point into Agile for absolute beginners, technical and non-technical participants. The exercise is fun, engaging and helps understand the mechanics of Agile frameworks such as [[Scrum Framework|Scrum]] as well as what it ''feels like'' to be on an agile team, which is highly important.
 
This workshop is also expected to be done in conjunction with the [[Agile 102 Workshop Syllabus|Agile 102 Workshop]] to provide a deeper understanding of the learning outcomes.

The Agile 101 Workshop is intended as an immersive project simulation such as the Lego Island Activity, which is always very popular and an entry point into Agile for absolute beginners, technical and non-technical participants. The exercise is fun, engaging and helps understand the mechanics of Agile frameworks such as Scrum as well as what it feels like to be on an agile team, which is highly important.

This workshop is also expected to be done in conjunction with the Agile 102 Workshop to provide a deeper understanding of the learning outcomes.

Agile Simulation Activities

Suggested Agile simulation activities:

Timings

Provide about 3 hours for the exercise to get at least 4 iterations or Sprints done to help orientate and then capitalise on their patterns of behaviour. This also provides for a good comprehensive reflection on the exercise to help cement the learning.
