Agile Teaching implies short cycles of learning that are able to adapt to the context (the educational environment). This rhythm is comprises of a number of nested cycles. We can imagine mapping these cycles roughly to the familiar daily, weekly, monthly and annual rhythms.
# Pod Cycle
Based on previous experience we focus on weekly iterations that build up to a course of between 6 and 10 weeks. We call this "course" a or pod cycle. As a rough rule of thumb we look to have each pod cycle last for as many weeks as there are pod members.
# Context A core component of the Academy Methodology comes from learning derived in part via the practice of Agile Project Management. The appreciation of rhythm in structuring this practice is a core part of our shared Learning Garden.
