project experience that extends for more than one academic term[2][12]. An alternative approach implemented by Moore[8][9] in the Real World Lab at the GeorgiaInstitute of Technology, is a project course sequence in which large-scale projects are addressedby a series of student teams over an extended period of time. In this model, less experiencedstudents can work on a large system that is reasonably well defined and documented by previousteams; while more experienced teams can initiate new systems or major enhancements. Inspired by Moore’s vision of creating a “level 5” (referring to the original CapabilityMaturity Model published by the Software Engineering Institute[11]) software developmentorganization in an academic environment, and

The first two affinity sessions followed the originaldesign, but a feedback session at the end of the first day led to reorganization of the affinitygroups to align with six attendee-selected topics: interdisciplinarity (across engineering and otherdisciplines), first year programs, learning technologies, project/case/hands-on learning, researchon design teaching and learning, and scholarship of teaching and learning. These new affinitygroups were selected based on their alignment with the ideas for innovations that the attendees
