Scrum Board

Correct Answer: Encourage the team to review and update the Scrum Board regularly, ensuring tasks are moved to 'Done' when completed.

The correct action as a Scrum Master is to guide the team in maintaining their Scrum Board effectively, which includes regular updates to accurately reflect the current state of their work. Introducing a new tool might not address the underlying issue of discipline in board management. Updating the board only during the Sprint Retrospective does not provide the transparency needed throughout the Sprint. Allocating specific times during the Sprint for board updates may seem like a solution, but it's crucial to integrate this into the daily workflow rather than making it an additional, possibly cumbersome, task.

Correct Answer: Consider experimenting with a digital Scrum Board for one Sprint to evaluate its impact on team collaboration and productivity.

The correct answer involves directly addressing the team member's suggestion by proposing an experiment with a digital Scrum Board. This approach promotes empiricism, a core principle of Scrum, allowing the team to inspect and adapt based on their own experience. The wrong answers, while related to improving team dynamics or process, do not directly respond to the team member's suggestion in a way that embraces Scrum's empirical nature or addresses the specific challenge of remote work.

Correct Answer: Educate the team on how the Scrum Board promotes transparency and enables better forecasting and planning.

The correct answer revolves around educating the team on the intrinsic benefits of using a Scrum Board, such as improved visibility and tracking, which are critical for the effectiveness of the Scrum process. Implementing a rotational system or replacing the Scrum Board with daily emails misses the point of fostering transparency and collaboration among the team. Organizing a workshop to redefine the Definition of Done, although beneficial for aligning with Scrum principles, does not directly address the resistance to the Scrum Board and thus, remains a less effective method in this context.
