Today many big companies, including Nokia deliver education in a classical waterfall model, a sequential and non-iterative process. As the format of learning has changed with trends demanding for more blended/social learning, learning on the run, e-learning as well the overall digitalization trend, the model for how companies deliver education needs to change. The Waterfall model is too slow, static and unable to cope with changes and reiterations that is required to follow the needs of the students and match the software development in Nokia´s learning offering. Nokia is in need of implementing models which can emphasize collaboration and communication and between product management, software development, and operations professionals. Ultimately a new delivery model should improve deployment frequency, have faster time to market, have lower failure rate of new releases and shortened lead time between fixes.
Nokia is looking for alliance partners in delivering in an agile mode for education. Interest of sharing would be applications, use cases of projects executed in agile mode and templates of methodologies such as Scrum and DevOps including continues delivery (CD). A valuable add on to the agile learning is a model used were “students” can collaborate on the content, with or without a content moderator structure. This should include the complete end to end value chain from the offering, design, development, implementation and delivery and also the charging/revenue models.
