  2. Stephan Krusche, Bernd Bruegge, Irina Camilleri, Kirill Krinkin, Andreas Seitz

    and Cecil Wöbker - Chaordic Learning: A Case Study History of Software Development 2 Waterfall Model 1970s Software Crisis 1960s Chaos Order Agile Methods 1990s Empirical Process Control Defined Process Control
  3. Stephan Krusche, Bernd Bruegge, Irina Camilleri, Kirill Krinkin, Andreas Seitz

    and Cecil Wöbker - Chaordic Learning: A Case Study Defined vs. Empirical Process Control 3 Empirical Process Not entirely planned Inspect and adapt Investigate deviations Defined Process Planned Follows strict rules Avoids deviations
  4. Stephan Krusche, Bernd Bruegge, Irina Camilleri, Kirill Krinkin, Andreas Seitz

    and Cecil Wöbker - Chaordic Learning: A Case Study Problem • Education focuses too much on rules, regulations and order • Instructors don’t want to lose control • Deviations are seen as failures • Focus on analytical and logical thinking 
 —> easier to grade ➡ “Creative teachers and students feel less and less in place” [Mulder 2015] ➡ Students only follow instructions, but do not use creative and intuitive thinking processes 4

    and Cecil Wöbker - Chaordic Learning: A Case Study Chaord “Any self-organizing, adaptive, non-linear complex system, whether physical, biological, or social, the behavior of which exhibits characteristics of both order and chaos or loosely translated to business terminology, cooperation and competition.“ — Dee Hock (1995) 5 Living systems thrive in a narrow band between chaos and order … CHAORD (kay-ord) ORDER CHAOS CONTROL

    and Cecil Wöbker - Chaordic Learning: A Case Study Case Study 1: Seminar Games Development 17 • Purpose: Develop and publish iOS games • Principles: Students choose own game idea • People: 2 instructors, 4-6 TAs, 40 students Chaordic Learning Environment Purpose Principles People Structure Concept Practices
  18. Stephan Krusche, Bernd Bruegge, Irina Camilleri, Kirill Krinkin, Andreas Seitz

    and Cecil Wöbker - Chaordic Learning: A Case Study Case Study 1: Seminar Games Development 18 • Concept: Flat hierarchy with feedback in both directions • Structure: 90min tutorials in the 1st week and 
 self-organized games development in the 2nd week • Practices: Self-organized teams, milestones, 
 Pecha Kucha and social activities Chaordic Learning Environment Purpose Principles People Structure Concept Practices

    and Cecil Wöbker - Chaordic Learning: A Case Study Summary: Chaordic Learning • Empower students to take more control • Apply empirical control: inspect and adapt • Leave room for creativity 
 and self-organization • Allow students to make failures 
 and to learn from them 22 Instructor Students Chaordic Learning Environment Purpose Principles People Structure Concept Practices
