Conclusion

You had clearly learned a lot studying Planning Poker and then writing about it. It is indeed a useful tool for reaching consensus in team estimations! The most difficult part of this week seemed to be the comparison. More often it's a good idea to combine using both expert and algorithmic models.

Generally, expert estimates are more popular in the software industry, and agile methods use them only. They may work better for uncertain situations, too. However, with more similarities between projects, it can be useful to rely more on algorithmic estimation.
