Agile Workshop: Planning & Estimating

Scrum in Action: Taskboard & Daily Scrum
A task board is a mechanism used to visually plan and track sprints tasks. It shows all the tasks that the sprint team is engaged in during a sprint. The tasks on the board must be maintained /updated regularly to reflect reality.
The task board is a very effective way to see what is going on a daily basis, and can be used during the daily Scrum meeting to quickly clarify/visualize issues.
Daily Scrums improve communications, eliminate many other meetings, identify and remove impediments to development, promote quick decision-making, and improve everyone's level of project knowledge.
Notice the burndown chart at the far right. The team keeps track of the project progress through the burndown chart.

User Story Mapping - System Visualization
Arranging user stories in a prioritized product backlog is a great way to understand which functionality to work on next.
However, that prioritized list will not provide a quick impression of what the whole system is intended to do.
Through user story mapping, stories are arranged into a visual and highly useful model which helps to quickly understand the functionality of the entire system.
Story mapping is also a great way to rapidly build a comprehensive release plan.
