Real-World Experience with Software Development

ATM takes a hands-on approach to learning by providing students with the opportunity to work on a real-world software project. This allows students to gain practical experience in all aspects of software development, including project management, requirements engineering, system design, UI/UX design, development, testing, and deployment. By working on a real-world project from end-to-end, students are able to understand how all the pieces fit together and how to work collaboratively in a team environment.

Practice Agile Methodologies SCRUM, XP, and Kanban :

Learn and Develop Like a Pro

ATM leverages the power of agile methodologies to transform the learning and development process. Training programs modeled around ATM are based on the principles of Agile and use SCRUM as the primary project management methodology. In addition to SCRUM, we also integrate practices from XP (Extreme Programming) and Kanban to create a comprehensive and effective learning experience.

XP emphasizes practices such as pair programming, test-driven development, continuous integration, and collective code ownership. These practices help students to learn and develop in a collaborative and iterative environment, ensuring high-quality code and fast feedback loops.

Kanban, on the other hand, emphasizes visualizing work and limiting work in progress. By using a Kanban board to track tasks and progress, students can stay focused and prioritize their work effectively. This helps to ensure that tasks are completed on time and that the team is working together efficiently.

In our training programs, we use a combination of SCRUM, XP, and Kanban to create short learning blocks, or sprints, focused on specific topic-based modules. These sprints are done as group activities, allowing students to work together, learn from each other, and develop team skills. This approach ensures that students learn in an immersive and enjoyable way, while also developing the skills and qualities required to become a mature and responsible software developer.

This approach creates an immersive learning environment that mirrors real-world software development.

Trainers help students build a strong foundation in agile principles and practices, enabling them to work collaboratively as a team. They help students to identify their strengths and weaknesses and provide personalized feedback and guidance to help them improve. Trainers also play a crucial role in facilitating agile ceremonies, such as sprint planning, daily stand-ups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives.

Through this approach, trainers transform students into expert software engineering teams, capable of delivering high-quality software products using agile methodologies. They encourage students to embrace the agile culture of continuous improvement and innovation, fostering a mindset of curiosity, experimentation, and learning. By working closely with trainers, students develop a deep understanding of agile principles and practices, which they can apply to their future software engineering careers.

Software Engineering Principles and Practices:

Master the Art of Software Development

To become an expert in software development, it is crucial to follow and practice all the software engineering principles and practices. Training programs that follow ATM are designed to ensure that students learn and apply these principles and practices throughout the entire learning and development cycle.

ATM blends SDLC(Software Development Lifecycle) phases and activities in the learning and development process.

  1. Planning and Requirements Engineering: This phase includes activities such as project planning, defining business requirements, and creating user stories and a requirements document.
  2. Design: This phase includes activities such as creating system architecture, designing user interfaces following UI/UX Design using tools such as Figma, Sketch etc, and Domain Modeling.
  3. Development: This phase includes activities such as coding following test-driven development testing, and debugging the software.
  4. Testing: This phase includes activities such as unit testing, integration testing, and other automated tests to ensure that the software meets the requirements.
  5. Deployment: This phase includes activities such as configuring the specific deployment environments using CI/CD tools, releasing the software incrementally after each sprint, and monitoring its performance.

We also use an iterative and incremental model, using sprints for the product development and hence learning. By breaking the software development process down into manageable chunks, we help students to focus on each phase’s requirements and deliverables, ensuring that they master the art of software development.

Our training programs are designed to teach students how to follow and apply software engineering principles and practices throughout the entire software development lifecycle. By doing so, we help them to develop the skills and qualities required for a successful career in software development.

Agile Practices Transformed into Learning Activities

ATM transforms Agile Practices into Learning Activities is an innovative approach to tech learning, where traditional learning activities are transformed into agile practices, making the tech learning experience more enjoyable and immersive for students. By implementing this approach, ATM makes the students experts in agile software development.

  1. Planning Sessions: The batch of students becomes a team of engineers who manage, plan, design, develop, test with automated tools and deploy after learning all these techniques as part of the program. Before the start of each sprint, the team conducts planning sessions where they define the scope of the sprint, break down the work into tasks, and estimate the effort required to complete each task.
  2. Daily Scrum Meetings: Each day during the sprint, the team holds a brief daily stand-up meeting where they review their progress, discuss any roadblocks, and plan their work for the day. This helps the team stay aligned, focused, and productive throughout the sprint.
  3. Kanban Board: The team uses a Kanban board to visualize their work and track their progress throughout the sprint. This board shows each task, its status (to-do, in progress, or done), and any blockers or dependencies. This helps the team stay organized, collaborate effectively, and identify and resolve any issues quickly.
  4. Test-Driven Development (TDD): As part of the program, the team practices TDD, a software development technique where developers write automated tests before writing the actual code. This helps ensure that the code is correct, reliable, and maintainable, and that it meets the acceptance criteria defined for each task.
  5. Product Demos: At the end of each sprint, the team conducts a product demo where they showcase the work they have completed during the sprint. This helps the team demonstrate their progress to stakeholders, receive feedback, and identify areas for improvement.
  6. Retrospectives: After each sprint, the team conducts a retrospective where they reflect on the sprint, identify what went well, what didn’t go well, and what they can improve for the next sprint. This helps the team continuously improve their processes, communication, and collaboration skills.
