This course is going to cover all aspects of the traditional SDLC. Given that traditional SDLC is waterfall, I expect to find ample opportunity to don my evangelical-agile-software-developer hat during the course. Like other courses that focus on issues dealing with the work I've been doing for the past 8 (almost 9) years, I don't expect to find much in the way of new information. Hopefully some of the information will be a little more structured than the way it's been presented in myriad technical books I've read about quality software development practices.
I don't mean to imply that I don't care about this subject--quite the opposite. I spend a great deal of time reading and continuously improving my ability to develop software. I have put to use much of what has come out of the Agile-practices community to produce better software faster. I guess I'll also be interested to see if or how this course addresses the concerns and improvements wrought by XP.
