# 3.1 Sprint Planning and Execution

Agile learning follows the sprint model, which involves short, focused periods of intense learning. The process begins with setting clear learning objectives and goals for the sprint. These objectives provide students with a sense of direction and purpose throughout the learning process. Tasks are then defined and broken down into manageable components, which are prioritized based on their importance and alignment with the learning objectives. Sprints are timeboxed, typically lasting two weeks to a month, which creates a sense of urgency and maintains focus. Progress is continuously monitored using Agile tools like Kanban boards or digital project management platforms. The Agile principle of adaptability allows students to adjust their course if a task proves too challenging or less valuable than initially thought.

Have a look at the [Mural template](https://www.mural.co/templates/sprint-planning) for a sprint planning and adapt it to your class needs.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://results.agilexr.eu/1-guide-agile-teamwork-in-web-based-learning/chapter-3-agile-practices-for-project-based-learning/3.1-sprint-planning-and-execution.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
