ABSTRACT
Agile manifestos are used in the software industry and now it has expanded into the education, teaching, and workspace environment. Agile development methodology is currently being tested in certain non-software systems. It supports better organization and rapid feedback for the users that can be acted upon or modified. Our study presents an amalgamation of Feature Driven Development and Scrum methodologies from Agile into a new ensemble method "Feature Driven Scrum." This ensemble method is implemented in an online study group and an educational workspace environment. The results indicate that Agile goes well in an educational workspace but there are some shortcomings when Agile is used in an online study group.
