In our first post on agile development from January (http://bit.ly/I67W8Q), we discussed the basics of the Agile software development process and why it is good for software vendors and their customers. This article looks at what makes a good User Story – the core of defining requirements.

Today, the expectations of learners are much different than they were only a few years ago.

In other words, learning needs to go Agile.
