Agile - Lean education
Cultural of learning in our schools.  But we don't have reliable ways of creating this culture.  Agile does.

www. agilemanifesto.org core is the four statements -
rewritten for education
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
meaning learning over measurement of learning
stakeholder collaboration over constant negotiations
responding to change over following a plan

Theory
agile is fundamentally about learning, people, and change, - three things we struggle with in education and handle poorly at the present time.

Agile vs Waterfall

Waterfall approach - can not change from start to finish - can not go back up
Agile  work together to proritize the next feature

Cost, scope and schedule - wait longer
-work with the team
As Steve McConnell sys, it's possible for a salmon to go back up a waterfall, but its not easy

muuda - waste
