As we move into the development phase, we're getting more and more immersed in the Agile Development method of project management.
The most basic currency is the user story. This is a combination of a type of user, function and purpose.
You can group together similar user stories into an epic.
During a sprint, the development team works on a small number of user stories towards eventually completing an epic. Each user story is weighed for importance and worked on by various developers. When the sprint is done, there's a whole lot of reflection and room for improvement (i.e iteration) before the next sprint begins.
Here are some examples of user stories in our project:

Here are some examples of user stories in our project:
- As a content author I want to automatically create a paragraph chunk when I hit the return key So chunks can be created more easily
- As a staff member I want to look at all the people who work in a department so I can figure out who I need to email about a work question
- As a student I want to be able to tell in the interface when I am looking at Official Catalog requirement info so that I know what i'm seeing is the real deal
Here's a screenshot of the tool we're using to project manage.
