Identification and Implementation of Relevant Metrics in Agile Software Development within the Learning Dashboard

Description: The Learning Dashboard (LD) is a tool used in some software engineering courses at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), where students develop projects in teams applying agile development practices. The LD supports both instructors and students by monitoring the development process of these projects by integrating data from multiple sources, such as Taiga, GitHub or Google Sheets, to compute and visualize metrics, factors, and indicators that provide insights into team performance, collaboration, and progress.

The goal of this project is to identify the most relevant metrics and indicators in agile software development according to the literature. This includes a comprehensive review of the literature and the implementation of the selected metrics within the Learning Dashboard, enabling more meaningful analysis and continuous improvement in agile project development.
