Live-Through Case Histories
as Motivation for Software Process
Professors Lawrence Bernstein and David Klappholz
This case study is offerred to those teaching Software Engineering in two-year community colleges,
undergraduate or graduate. It is also available to companies that have their own
in-house training and education programs.
The only thing I ask in return is that they give the exam,
send me copies of the student exam papers and their grading and a report on
their experience. This data will be used as part of my research at
Stevens Institute of
Technology.
I am doing this work with Prof. David Klappholz and a cognitive
physiologist Prof. Cathy Kelley. Cathy will help set up the scoring of
the results.
Some of you teach this material and I humbly ask you to include the
case history in next fall's class. Please let me know your interest. Any comments welcome.
If you can influence instructors to try the approach in next falls
class that would be great.
Larry Bernstein
