We are applying the stakeholder win-win
approach to software engineering education. The key stakeholders we
are trying to simultaneously satisfy are the students; the industry
recipients of our graduates; the software engineering community as
parties interested in improved practices; and ourselves as
instructors and teaching assistants.
In order to satisfy the objectives or win
conditions of these stakeholders, we formed a strategic alliance
with the University of Southern California Libraries to have
software engineering student teams work with Library clients to
define, develop, and transition USC digital library applications
into operational use. This adds another set of key stakeholders: the
Library clients of our class projects.
This paper summarizes our experience in
developing, conducting, and iterating the course. It concludes by
evaluating the degree to which we have been able to meet the
stakeholder-determined course objectives. |
