Conducting a joint course on software engineering based on teamwork of students

Abstract

For the previous six years, under the auspices of the "Stability Pact of South-Eastern Europe" and DAAD, a joint project for developing a course in "Software Engineering" has been conducted. The intention of the project was to enable usage of shared materials for software engineering courses at a wide range of universities in participating countries. During school-year 2004/05, for the first time the same course, with the same case study, and the same assignments has been conducted at the Humboldt University Berlin, and the University of Novi Sad. In this paper, we share some of the experiences obtained through conducting the same course in the two school-years: 2004/05 and 2005/06. © 2008 Institute of Mathematics and Informatics, Vilnius.
