Last summer, Rally started a video series called “Chalk Talks“.
I was fortunate enough to have filmed several “Chalk Talk” videos about some of the basics of Agile software development (The Agile Manifesto, Scrum Basics, Iteration Demo and Review Meeting, and other topics).
Since then, Rally’s expert team of Agile Coaches have joined the party and recorded additional Chalk Talks, again on some great basic Agile topics: Ronica Roth on User Stories, John Martin on Story Points, and Rachel Weston on Release Planning in Agile just to name a few.
We also tapped into the wisdom of some of our other Agile Coaches: Julie Chickering, Mark Kilby, and Ken Clyne.
Our Rally Chalk Talks are informal videos, typically 3 – 5 minutes long, intended to provide quick, easy introductions to Agile topics.
Filmed in a short, tutorial format, these videos are great to share with your team as they are getting up to speed on Agile.
To get a feel for our latest work, here’s Rally Agile Coach Ronica Roth in her great Chalk Talk on User Stories. ( during which you can find out why a dog would want his own laptop :D )
Be sure to check out our entire catalog of Chalk Talks and subscribe to our YouTube channel if you’d like to be notified when we publish new videos. We already have two more Chalk Talks queued up: “Kanban and Scrum” and “Agile and Lean”.
As you look through our current catalog of talks, be sure to let us know what other topics you’d like us to cover in future talks.
