technologyAbstract Teaching software development in environments that mimic industry practices isessential for teaching applicable real-word development skills. In addition, these delivery-basedprojects engage students in meaningful design work that encourages clear, sustainable code. TheSoftware Factory has provided such projects and environment to students at Montana StateUniversity (MSU) since the 2014 academic year. This project aimed to explore the effectivenessof such instruction for high school students with limited programming experience. Students fromBozeman High School, Bozeman, Montana, were selected to work in a team with two MSUundergraduate students with the goal of creating an Android application over the course of asummer semester

Design in Engineering Education

ChallengesAbstractThere are many benefits to participating in multi-campus collaborations among project-baseddesign teams. First, students gain experience in working in a distributed design environment,which is becoming more commonplace in engineering practice. Second, collaborations offer theability to share complementary expertise and allow student design teams to participate in projectsthat they would not normally be able to undertake alone. Third, collaboration among teams ofmultiple campuses allows for sharing of prior work and the opportunity to build upon the work tohave a more significant impact.There are, however, challenges to participating in multi-campus collaborations. It is difficult forstudent teams to partition projects such that they can be done

-learning context, the intention was to emphasize service, however academic demands dominated.Because of the hands-on design-and-build curriculum, the instructors felt that students couldperform effectively as engineers without additional “academic” material overhead. Thus, muchof the documentation requirements were curtailed.When the requirements eased, student passion returned; yet, the instructors soon discovered thatwith this excitement came reduced project performance. Though the faculty was teaching thedesign process and engaged students with multiple projects throughout the curriculum, studentshad not effectively learned how to develop project requirements and specifications. Therefore,the instructors revamped the approach and implemented a

Because of the high importance of RE inthe design of software systems, the need to introduce RE as a required course in theundergraduate Software Engineering (SE) and Computer Science (CS) curricula is getting moreattention. This paper summarizes the author’s experiences in developing and teaching a REcourse to juniors in the new Software Engineering degree program offered at Milwaukee Schoolof Engineering (MSOE).One of the major issues holding back

Their successes were limited, hampered not by a lack oftechnical knowledge, but because they lacked skills and experience in working with others towards acommon project resolution.The sophomore design course, EGR 286, is the course where students fully integrate their currentlevel of engineering education with a weeks-long, team-based design activity. The design teams areabout 10-12 students in size, each comprised of Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, and Environmentalstudents.
