Analizando la utilización de Scrum como metodología para transferir conocimiento en la educación universitaria de la Informática

Resumen

Scrum is one of the most widely used software development methodologies and, therefore, is part of the curriculum of the Computer Science studies in our universities. However, there is not much evidence on how to use this methodology to transfer new knowledge in educational and training contexts. The idea suggested in this paper is to apply Scrum at a higher level of abstraction to teach concepts in a structured and incremental way to students of Computer Science. With this intention, Scrum is presented as a methodology to transfer knowledge, guiding the work of professors and students through its rules, phases and ceremonies. In addition, a teaching experience is described to support the feasibility of the approach, and to encourage other professors to perform similar experiences in their courses related with the Informatics.
