Software engineers aren't born in teams: supporting team processes in software engineering project courses

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

In the Computer Science programme at Victoria University of Wellington, we teach two 3rd year software engineering courses. The first course teaches software engineering principles. The second course is a project course in which students are expected to work in teams. This year, we provided more support for team processes in the project course. We describe the mechanisms that we use to support the team process and summarize the results of a survey that evaluated the mechanisms. The survey, which was administered at the mid-point of the course, indicates that at that time our mechanisms to support team processes appear to be working well.
