Task Summary
For this individual assessment, you will be required to research and write a 1500-word report on agile methods, processes, and the agile approach. This report needs to be written from the perspective of explaining Agile to someone who has no understanding of the Agile approach, as if it is being implemented in an organisation for the first time. Agile has several different frameworks or methodologies however Scrum roles, processes and tools/artefacts are found in most if not all Agile frameworks.

a. Describe the scrum roles and what they are responsible for.
b. Describe the Agile ceremonies and what is done in each ceremony.
c. Explain how the scrum roles participate in these ceremonies.
d. How do the ceremonies contribute to the three pillars of Scrum?
e. Which agile principles from the Agile Manifesto align to which ceremony, artefact and/or practice, explaining why you believe this to be the case.
f. Where does the Business Analyst fit in to this picture and what contributions do they make to the various artefacts and ceremonies that you have discussed?
Context

For you to succeed in a role as an Agile Business Analyst will require an understanding of agile methods processes and approaches.
