This paper presents the results found in the application and adaptation of an agile approach to software development in a course called “Interdisciplinary Software Project IV” at the bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais over two years with twenty projects already done. In the fourth semester of the course, students have to develop a software with a social focus. They are introduced to real customers from the communities with real problems and need to incorporate useful knowledge of the current semester subjects into their system, with artifacts and documentation. Through the use of the Scrum framework, it was possible to observe several adaptations made to suit the academic context, although the practical reality of the course, and the nature of the clients for which the projects are developed. Throughout the paper are presented the results obtained and which can serve as an example for similar approaches.
