In the late 1990’s, the ABET, the accreditationbody for applied science, engineering, computing and technology degree programs in the UnitedStates, approved criteria for accrediting software engineering under the EngineeringAccreditation Commission (EAC). Four programs were accredited in 2003, and another two in20048.

Engineering Education, 2016 The Integration of Novel Forms of Feedback into Software Engineering CoursesAbstractSoftware Engineering students exhibit a wide array of learning styles across the perception,input, organization, processing, and understanding dimensions. To improve students’performance in the classroom, many techniques have been developed to address these variances.Active learning has a long history of usage in the software engineering classroom, and thedisciplines strong history of diagramming and visual representations have been very supportiveto the large percentage of students who are visual learners. Coaching by faculty in project basedcourses also is common in the discipline. However, when it

Software engineering, it is well known, fits none of these categories.Furthermore, it is long recognised that the education of practitioners in the emerging field ofsoftware engineering would require a different approach to that traditionally applied to computerscience.

Built around the programmingenvironment of LabVIEW this material is intended to provide flexibility in the mode ofpresentation. Specifically, more active hands-on experience will be possible as well as agreater use of visual input. Most engineering students do not gain substantial hands-onexperience in thermodynamics classes, due to time and equipment constraints. It is anticipatedthat use of the virtual instrument capabilities of LabVIEW will give students a closerapproximation of real world experience through simulation.Learning and Teaching StylesBefore presenting a description of the educational software it is

It is our opinion that dynamics including body biomechanics are learned much betterin an interactive way. With the use of a mechanical simulation software, students can get beyondthe mathematical formalism and use physical reasoning to tackle challenging problems, quicklychange the model’s parameters and observe the effects of the changes.
