Abstract

Various studies have been carried out to determine the impact of Scrum in students' projects. Many of these studies assign the role of the Scrum master to a lecturer or a mentor. This may have unintended consequences on the students' team, including making them feeling micro-managed and also not allowing the agile team self-organization which is a key requirement in Scrum. Furthermore, students may feel they are not in charge of their work.This paper investigates the impact that a student Scrum master has on the quality and delivery time on students' projects. The preliminary results of the investigation show that the student Scrum master plays a positive enabling role in assisting the team to meet both quality and time project constraints.
