University of Kentucky Appropriate Technology and Sustainability(UKATS) research group is an undergraduate, service learning and sustainability focused research group atthe University of Kentucky (UK) College of Engineering Paducah Extended Campus Program. This grouphas established successful partnerships with Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO) in Cameroon andIndia as part of a non-traditional study abroad course in global service learning in engineering. The servicelearning projects undertaken by the UKATS research group as part of the EGR 390: Global ServiceLearning in Engineering course at UK are focused on the development and dissemination of technologybased on the principles of appropriate technology and sustainability – particularly the

consequence, educators have includedpractical projects in their software development course designs, recognizing the need tolearn about the human (i.e. cognitive and social) aspects of software engineering.9 Thesepractical projects are able to complement lectures and teach a different set of skills. Kroppand Meier11 introduced the Agile Competence Pyramid model, differentiating various levelsof these agile skills and rating them in importance. Agile values are considered to be mostimportant in their model by being on the top of the pyramid. However, the authors notethat this level of the model “is mostly completely neglected” in current course programs.In order to address this issue in an integrated approach, we have developed the softwareengineering
