Howdy! This week, we don’t have too much to tell you as we did a so-called “retrospective” last week. A retrospective is sort of a team-meeting that you do from time to time to talk about the past sprints. The purpose is for the team to know how other team members feel and to get a better team chemistry and efficiency.
In the following screenshots, you can see the results of our restrospective. As we are computer science students (and also never did this before), we didn’t have too much to say, but here goes:
Basically, the things we found positive were the good communication in our team and the good distribution of tasks. We get along very well in our team and we never had problems with having the tasks done by the deadline.
The negative things were that we had some problems with our productivity as we had to do quite a lot for other lectures also. This might also be related to our struggle to schedule some times to meet up e.g. on the weekends which caused some delays, but happily that wasn’t too much of an issue yet.
From these two categories, our new ideas were just to schedule some fixed dates each week where we meet up and talk about our individual progess for better project management.
The follow-up actions then basically were to have said fixed dates planned and also get more into coding after the exams so we have a stable codebase very soon.
As we said, not too much to be told this week, we hope you enjoyed reading this weeks post anyways. See you next week,
The Betterzon Team
