Tóm tắt

Software engineering is difficult to do in the real world, so teaching it to computer science undergraduates in an academic setting is a real challenge. Many software engineering instructors, especially those at small, liberal arts colleges or universities, are limited to a one semester course where they seek to use a "real world", term-long, team-developed project to give their students a desired mixture of theory and practice. The project is selected for a variety of reasons - availability of a real client, complexity of the problem, ability of students to have a "running" software product at the end of the term, and others. This paper presents the rationale for a challenging software engineering project that relies upon the instructor's "real world", supports failure as a learning mechanism, and involves the instructor in guiding the team and evaluating each of its individual members.
