Chang, Hung-Fu; Shokrolah Shirazi, Mohammad – Informatics in Education, 2022
Scrum is a widely-used framework in industry, so many schools apply it to their software engineering courses, particularly capstone courses. Due to the differences between students and industrial professionals, changing Scrum is necessary to fit capstone projects. In this paper, we suggest a decision-making process to assist instructors in…

Dowdall, Shane; Hlobaz, Artur; Milczarski, Piotr; O'Reilly, Derek; Podlaski, Krzysztof; Stawska, Zofia – Informatics in Education, 2021
The development of communication and other soft skills among computer science students is not usually an easy task. Often, curricula focus on technical skills, with team projects being used for the improvement of communication skills. However, these teams usually comprise solely of computer science students. In this paper, we present a didactical…
