Whiteboard-Like Solutions
- ORDER THESE ASAP
- Because there are exercises involving whiteboards or "WHITEBOARD CLING-SHEETS", the students need 1 large 'board area' per table. This can be achieved either by existing whiteboards on the walls, or (usually more easily) by supplying (per class, not per table) a total of FOUR ROLLS OF "WHITEBOARD CLING-SHEETS".
- ORDER THESE ASAP... this is a list of online suppliers for whiteboard cling-sheets: Whiteboard-like Sheets for Agile Modeling On Walls
Walls
- IF "WHITEBOARD CLING-SHEETS" ARE USED (this is common), THEN IT IS CRITICAL THAT each team needs lots CLEAR FLAT wall space for this. To be clear: There must be lots of clear empty wall space, and we must be able to use the walls, and put things on the walls.
Room
- People will be organized into table-teams, averaging 5 or 6 people per team. The tables are ideally in separate islands, circular or square, with a team at each.
Table Layout
- Round tables are ideal, but we can live with rectangular layouts
- Tables should not be against the walls; we are using the walls as a working area in this course.
- Distribute the tables throughout the room
