Scrum Embedded in the Blogs Approach for Education

Worldwide technological improvements, suitable to be applied in the educational process, brough a number of useful tools that can be used by teachers for their specific teaching and learning methods. However, the classical teaching and learning methods proved to be, most of them, insufficient during this Covid-19 pandemic period. Therefore, the new events such as lockout or scenarios when half of the students attend the class in classroom (onsite) and the other half assist the class (online), have challenged professors to find “overnight” improved or totally different methods of teaching and learning. All these novel methods must be developed based on digital up-to-date tools, no matter the subject taught. This paper addresses advanced tools for teaching and learning based on blogs embedded with Scrum Agile project management methods, and integrating Augmented Reality. All these have been successfully used in education, namely teaching and learning the Electronics subject for students in ninth class of study. The outcomes, following applying these methods during these tough times, according to teachers, proved to be really useful for students who took part in this study. The students not only acquired new information, they strived for the best results and, due to the continuous and constant interest showed by teachers for them, they successfully pass the final evaluation with high grades. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
