diverse skills is a very important learning experience. As we have sought out projects in unfamiliar domains, we have had an opportunity to interact with people outside of the SE curriculum context who have acted as stakeholders to SE student groups. This has been a very positive, yet challenging experience for our students.From 2000-2003, students typically worked on external “industry-sponsored” projects. Althoughthese external collaborations were largely positive experiences, they had some drawbacks,including great difficulty scheduling and traveling to meet with the external stakeholders. In the2003-2004 academic year, other students were used as stakeholders for the first time.Specifically

environment will add to the prob-lem-recognition and problem-solving abilities of the engineering and architecture students. Inmost workplaces in the building industry, problems solving and design require collaborationamong members of a group. These activities require that people share information and coordi-nate their activities in a setting that allows for immediate interaction 4. Although the design andproduction of buildings traditionally requires collaboration, the work is done serially, withdrawings passing among the professions and each adding their information and recyclingthrough the process until the project is completed. No methods of optimization are appliedbecause of the way the design process is structured. Optimal solution spaces are

Bothinvolve the encounter of a series of open-ended problems that require resolution. The choicesmade in the solution to one problem often influences the possibilities and approaches for the nextproblem. Two groups assigned the same task can experience very different challenges based ontheir own choices. There is also the nature of collaboration and teamwork.
