Abstract
Students' weak scientific literacy is partly linked to the lack of assessment tools designed specifically to measure it. A review of 40 daily Biology test items for Grade VIII at SMP Adabiah Padang showed that only 37.5% addressed the indicator of explaining phenomena scientifically, while no items addressed interpreting and evaluating data. This study aimed to produce a valid and practical digital scientific literacy assessment (E-Assessment) for junior high school (SMP/MTs) science. It followed a Research and Development approach based on the Plomp model, restricted to the prototyping phase.
This publication proposes a definition and a classification of agile software development approaches and analyses ten software development methods that can be characterized as being "agile" against the defined criterion.

The study shows that agile practices improve both informal and formal communication, but indicates that, in larger development situations involving multiple external stakeholders, a mismatch of adequate communication mechanisms can sometimes even hinder the communication.

The results indicate that software engineering work practices are chosen opportunistically, adapted and configured to provide value under the constrains imposed by the startup context.

It is proved that any global minimizer of the trajectory balance objective can define a policy that samples exactly from the target distribution, and empirically demonstrate the benefits of the trajectories balance objective for GFlowNet convergence, diversity of generated samples, and robustness to long action sequenc...
