Teaching, Research, and Practice AbstractWe often compartmentalize our academic life into the areas of teaching, research, and practice.In fact, there are many synergies to be realized by treating a course as a completeecosystem. This means enlisting students in the course to work on projects to improve thecourse, and projects to help the instructor in research. Managing these projects can even giveinstructors a taste of what it is like to manage projects in industry, giving them experienceapplying course concepts in the field. Projects within the course can lead to independent-studyprojects, or even theses. With a little bit of ingenuity, this strategy can be employed in coursesfrom the introductory to

They used a pre/posttest with control group/experimental group design at both aHigher Education (HE) - university level, and a Further Education (FE) - (community) collegelevel. Overall the studies showed that GBL can be a suitable approach to teach requirementscollection and analysis at a supplementary level in tertiary education.Manohar et al.
