Agile development is very common in software engineering and involves deliberate planning and testing in short "sprints" of development.
Your teacher will set up milestone dates for you and your class where you will all test each other's websites and provide simple feedback to help you refine your plan for the next sprint.
Watch the video here for a quick overview and lesson on the tools and techniques you'll need to use.
Now you have to take what you have learned and make your website. Make sure you read all the instructions carefully and know exactly what you intend to make before starting this assessment. Your teacher is only allowed to give you very basic feedback now and is not allowed to help you. This is a test to see if you can work independently and put all your knowledge into practice to make a cool website.
