“…E-learning allows students to access learning materials and learn anywhere and anytime on any smart device, and its learning effectiveness has also been supported by a lot of research studies [6]. On the other hand, agile learning refers to the ability to adapt learning strategies quickly in response to change and bridge the gap between various identified needs of stakeholders and the learning process being deployed [7], and it is a concept transferred from agile methods in software engineering to the learning design process [8]. Noguera et al [9] showed that agile strategies for teamwork organization can improve students' team regulation and project management in collaborative project-based learning.…”

The recent integration of educational technologies and emerging learning approaches into education systems has been driven largely by the pandemic. This paper conducts a systematic review and delves into the new wave of research on serious games designed for innovative learning using augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR). The review was referenced to the review protocol, PRISMA 2020. Using the Scopus Database with a time filter from 2007 to 2023 (27 July), we searched 329 articles and shortlisted 273 relevant studies. Notably, European countries contributed the most (62.9%) to this research area. Among the most frequent keywords, VR (90.9%) was commonly used in AR/VR/MR, while e-learning (95.3%) was among the popular innovative learning approaches. Further research studies are needed to employ AR and MR technologies, as well as other innovative learning approaches, to enable performance evaluation and comparison of various educational technologies and learning approaches. We conducted an in-depth analysis of the relevant studies and their basic characteristics. Additionally, we introduced 15 essential and recently published AR/VR/MR standards to ensure better reliability, quality, and safety of architectures, systems, products, services, and processes. To facilitate performance evaluation and analysis, we surveyed 15 recently published benchmark education datasets. This review suggested four future research directions, including multisensory experiences, generative artificial intelligence, personalization and customization, and real-time interaction.

“…There is a learning gap from the theory knowledge into practical SDLC skills in higher education [4]. To close the learning gap, some universities including the Bachelor of Science with Honours in CS joint degree programme between University of Glasgow (UofG) and Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) offer courses for both theory and practices [5]. In the curriculum of CS joint degree programme between UofG and SIT, both PSD course and Team Projects (TP) course are taught for two continuous trimesters concurrently.…”

Professional Software Development (PSD) course is about the emerging profession of software engineering which involves developing, deploying, testing, and maintaining software. Currently, the Bachelor of Science with Honours in Computing Science (CS) joint degree programme of University of Glasgow (UofG) and Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) carries out both PSD and Team Projects (TP) courses concurrently, where students are expected to apply the theory learnt from PSD to real-world projects in TP. TP is a practical project continuation from knowledge learnt in the PSD course. Both PSD and TP last two trimesters in parallel. This paper analyses the advantages and disadvantages of the current learning methods in PSD and TP. It is possible that there is still room for improvement in the current system. To further analyse the current learning system, a comparison of how the Software Engineering course is taught in other universities is also performed, from where ideas and methodology are proposed. The proposed methodology is analyzed and discussed from the suggestions or feedback of the CS students who have gone through both PSD and TP courses. The purposes are to improve the learning effectiveness of both PSD and TP courses.
