Abstract
One of the main challenges faced by teachers in education, both at K-12 and academy levels, is related to the need to attract and retain the attention and the commitment by students, and ensure they achieve the required learning outcomes. Thus, new and exciting methodologies were developed to support teachers. Many of them have been inspired by approaches devised for Agile software development. This chapter aims to review the main Agile methodologies that have inspired educational approaches and to provide a description of the features retained in the educational context. Several experiences reported in the literature are also described.
