Abstract

The challenges of project management involve the reconstitution of technological resources and the abilities in data for the development of products and information services. This article presents a teaching report of a discipline about agile methods in the context of Information Science. With a quantitative and qualitative approach, through observation techniques and documentary research, the course has been offered in the postgraduate Program in Management & Knowledge Organization, at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in the second semester of 2022 and 2023. For measuring the results was considered academic performance and an optional form filling without identification. As results, we highlight the artifacts developed for the course with a theoretical and a practical approach, the filling of the vacancies, the students’ motivation and interaction and the appropriation of Scrum, through a final project at the end of the course.
