A Playful Approach to Learn Scrum through Distant Collaboration using Online Whiteboards

Published:07 July 2022Publication History

ABSTRACT

We present an approach for teaching introductory Scrum concepts through a playful online collaborative activity. It was conducted with 1st-semester students who never had any in-person contact and started their course under emergency online teaching during the Covid-19 pandemic. We adapted the Lego4Scrum approach and instead of plastic bricks, we combined an online whiteboard (Miro) with a communication tool (Discord) for teams.
