The first day of a project is the worst day to plan
what the end product will be (and how much

How do you choose just one persona?
• Quantity • Impact • Business Risk • Opportunity • Degree of Difficulty • Priority / timing for phases
28
Define scope with stories Write learner stories and story cards to define
scope and plan the project.
29
Stories capture business needs and performance outcomes in a format
that's useful for planning & production.

Story Cards 3 Things

As a I want so I can
<who> <what> <why>
Use Agile story mapping for building
tools, things & software.

for Agile learning projects.

1. Break big things into little ones. 2. Plan from the big to the little. 3. Work from the little to the big.
(if they don’t match, start talking) 4. Make it visual.

Why iterate?
52
You always have something usable. You catch errors early. It’s easier to estimate. It’s psychologically way more satisfying.
How to iterate?
53
Alpha > Beta > Final By Project Phase By Delivery Medium By level of finish/functionality By language By audience
Megan’s Rules for Iterations
It does real work. Someone else has to use it.
You gather data. Data informs the work to do in the next iteration.
