Report from the 3rd International Symposium on Software Engineering Course Projects (SWECP 2006)

摘要

This paper reports on the activities and results from the 3rd International Symposium on Software Engineering Course Projects (SWECP 2006), which was held on October 19, 2006 in Toronto, Canada as part of the IBM CASCON 2006 conference. The symposium explored how educators, students, and industry can work together to develop a more rewarding educational experience for all stakeholders involved in the context of senior design classes and team-based course projects. Several key topics were discussed at the symposium, including team dynamics, the choice of software development process, and the role of advanced software engineering tools in design project courses. SWECP 2006 was a sequel to the workshops that were held in 2002 and 2005.
