SCRUM OVERVIEW

Short animated videos

About the videos in this section

The following 6-part video series was produced by CollabNet VersionOne and they provide a quick, animated overview of Scrum. Watch the videos to get an understanding of the basic concepts in the Scrum framework. Please note that some of the terms changed in Scrum since these videos were produced (e.g., the "Daily Standup Meeting" is now referred to as the "Daily Scrum Meeting) but the main ideas of Scrum are accurately depicted and based on an slightly older version of the Scrum Guide which fits the terms in the SBOK by ScrumStudy (for the SFC certification).

PART 1: INTRODUCTION TO SCRUM

Duration: 15 Minutes
​This video covers the rationale and essentials of Scrum and Agile, and includes an overview of the roles, meetings, and artifacts. 

PART 2: BACKLOG REFINEMENT MEETING

Duration: 15 Minutes
​This video covers the meeting that's essential to success at Scrum and other Agile approaches. The topics covered include how to recognize well-formed Product Backlog Items (PBIs), a team effort estimation game, decomposition of large PBIs (e.g. "epics") into smaller ones (e.g. "user stories"), acceptance criteria, definition of done, Product Backlog prioritization, and team self organization.

PART 3: SPRINT PLANNING MEETING

Duration: 14 Minutes
This video covers the first official meeting in the Scrum cycle. The topics include: the difference between the Product Backlog vs. the Sprint Backlog, how to break PBIs into Sprint Tasks, timeboxing, what is a "potentially shippable product increment," definition of done, planning for testing within a Sprint, limiting Work In Progress (WIP), team volunteerism, and commitment-based planning. 

PART 4: DAILY SCRUM MEETING

Duration: 14 Minutes
This video covers the second and most frequent meeting in the Scrum cycle. The topics include: effective use of the taskboard, team self organization, how to incorporate varying skills on one team, the role of the ScrumMaster during Sprint Execution, pros and cons of involving the Product Owner each day, the three questions, and keeping the meeting short. 

PART 5: SPRINT REVIEW MEETING

Duration: 14 Minutes
This video covers the meeting held after the execution of each Sprint in which the team conducts a live demonstration of the working product increment for the Product Owner. For those outside the team, this is the most visible part of Scrum. The topics include: Acceptance criteria and definition of done, velocity, transparency, how to involve external stakeholders, and emergent requirements in the Product Backlog.

PART 6: SPRINT RETROSPECTIVE MEETING

Duration: 17 Minutes
This video covers the final meeting associated with each Sprint. In this meeting, the team reflects on the Sprint to raise its own awareness of what transpired. It ends with agreements about specific adaptations for future Sprints. The topics include: checking for safety, “classic” retrospectives, focused conversation principles, timeline retrospectives, reaching agreements that stick, and how to learn more about facilitation.
