Hi,

1) in a training test, I met demand:

In Scrum projects, we plan to "learn as we go" because...

Correct annswer:
Many projects are evolutionary, and a better solution emerges thisway

In your opionion what is "learn as we go"? I did not found it in no one manual

2) in a scaled scrum, all team that work on same project must to have same sprint length and sprints must start at same day.
Is it correct?

Thank to all.

Hi Andrea,

1, What does Scrum Guide say?

2, Which Scaled Scrum you referring to? What will happen if we have different Sprint length and not start at the same day? The answer is : depends.

Cheers

Hi thank you for kind support.
In 1 maybe I did not undertand terminology or way of say: "learn as we go"...

In 2 my ask is: if scrum teams do not have same sprint length, how can they partecipate together to nexus event?
For example all srcum team should finish their sprint for partecipate to nexus review I think, Is it correct?
Anyway I study better scrum and nexus guide.
Thank you again.

Hi Andrea,

1, For your reference : "Scrum is founded on empirical process control theory, or empiricism. Empiricism asserts that knowledge comes from experience and making decisions based on what is known. Scrum employs an iterative, incremental approach to optimize predictability and control risk."

2, I guess you answered already.

:)

Cheers

Hey Andrea,

1. In my interpretation "learn as we go" means two things: in the product development aspect, we are getting more insights as we make progress (e.g. after we start implementation of a feature we learn that our initial design needs adjustment). In the process aspect, we learn how to improve our scrum process every sprint (that's what the retros are for).

2. Correct, in Nexus, sprints of all teams must have the same length.

Hope this answers your questions.
