1 About the Client/Product

Each team is working for the company Sagacious Media on the product unitED. Sagacious Media has supplied you with a Domain Glossary containing many of the terms you will need to know in order to work with them. A considerable amount of good information about mixed fractions is available on the WWW.

2 Required Process and Tools

Every student in the course will be assigned to a team.

Teams must use Scrum. The Product Owner will provide a set of prioritized features for each sprint (i.e., a product backlog). During the sprint planning meetings, your team must determine which features (i.e., stories) will be included in the sprint backlog and create tasks and acceptance criteria for each.

Each team member must use the required tool set. Note that you must use Java v17 (not higher). If you have installed a higher version, your code must not use features beyond those in v17 and you must cross-compile your code so that the .class files are consistent with v17. (See the CS Wiki for help.)

Your source code (other than test suites) must not contain any style defects.

Your JUnit tests must be in a package named testing and each test class must include the word "Test" in its name.

3 Assessment

Your team's grade on each sprint will be based on the quality of the team's planning. Your individual grade on each sprint will be based on your attendance, whether or not you completed the tasks you committed to during the sprint planning meeting, whether or not you committed to enough tasks, and whether or not you reported your progress as you worked through tasks.

Your final grade on the project will be based on: your team's grades on each sprint, the improvements your team made to the process it used, your individual grades on each sprint, and your assessments of each other (which you will submit at the end of the process).

The process I will use when determining your final grade on the project will be somewhat subjective. I will not use a specific formula or set of weights when calculating final grades. However, the grades you and your team receive on the individual sprints will give you a good idea of the grade you will receive on the final project.

4 Final Review and Deliverables

At the end of the last sprint, you must give a final product review. For more information, see the following document:

Before the start of class on the day of the final product review you must submit several deliverables. For more information, see the following document:
