From as early as 1981 with Michalak’s research called ‘The Neglected Half of Training’, there has been problems highlighted about the transfer of learning.

Waterfall Project Management Methodology Where software development is concerned, Waterfall was the first project management methodology. It stems from the construction industry, where changes are very difficult - once you’ve built a large bridge, for example, it’s very difficult to turn back and improve the structures. This inability to respond easily to repeated change leaves some feeling that Waterfall project management is not well suited to software development.

We all learn something new every day. In fact, the majority of our most useful skills come from looking up stuff in the heat of things. Think researching a recipe on youtube before a party, using a blog post to figure out how to troubleshoot your smartphone, asking a motor enthusiast friend to help you clean your car’s carburetor and so on. It’s easy to think of these activities as trivial compared to say, a university education.

The Detailed Comparison of Kanban vs Scrum vs Agile It can be difficult for project managers to keep up with the ever-evolving methodologies that can benefit their teams. It is also tricky sometimes to know what the differences are between them, and what will work best for their colleagues and themselves. Whilst the ultimate aim of each of these methods is to aid and enhance the process of completing projects, it is important to recognize that each method is distinct in its own right.
