The most notable of these was a “Resource Study Pack” which the project leadersdeveloped based upon the academic profile of the sample. Each Resource Study Pack,comprised a number of ‘virtual’ resources for maths, physics and chemistry; it also providedinstructive guidance with regards to academic writing and referencing. A quiz on

Students need to work in small teams, 3 or 4 students at most, during regularly-scheduled classroom hours. The roles of individual teams must be scheduled so that sufficienttime is available for each team to play each role. Fortunately, software architecture lends itself toshort periods of intense team activity, with reporting and peer review of results later. We believethat this active learning style is an effective approach for most subjects, but especially forsoftware architecture.IntroductionThe methods described here are
