Abstract

These ideas were developed and refined in a compulsory 30-credit module for software engineering and computer science students. The module employs a number of novel techniques in delivery and assessment, as well as a number of online learning tools. These provide an exemplar environment of new educational experiences for those preparing for a career in software engineering. Also included in this chapter are summarised feedback ideas received from students and the experiences of the tutors delivering the module. This leads to a series of recommendations for future developments, which will be of interest to all involved in software engineering education.
