Our approach of incorporating an SPL owner into the project changes the motivationdiscussions and leads to more software reuse. We found that mindfulness of SPL andmaintainability by the whole team from the beginning of a project does delay development offeatures, but ultimately it saved time not having to re-write or refactor as often. Students initiallywere skeptical of the additional costs of SPL engineering, but as they saw the deployment tests,they appreciated the importance of maintainability more, and many cited it as the most significantlearning outcome of the course.6.3 Competition is a strong motivatorBy
