Software engineering problems and their relationship to perceived learning and customer satisfaction on a software capstone project

Participating in an Industry Based Social Service Program: a Report of Student Perception of What They Learn and What They Need

“…Capstone is defined as "the high point: crowning achievement" [24]. In a capstone project, "students solve real-life problems in the context of a large, realistic project" [37]. Working on a project helps students to develop SE skills and apply them in a realistic environment, providing them with an excellent opportunity to understand and experience various technological waves that would be present in their careers [16].…”

“…Several papers address the use of capstone projects to enhance knowledge and skills of both CS and SE students. Vanhanen et al [37] conducted a survey to understand the problems that arise during development of capstone projects, to gain insight into improvement in learning outcomes as perceived by students, and into customer satisfaction. They found that learning outcomes varied a lot among teams and team members since roles undertaken by students affected their level of learning.…”

“…They found that learning outcomes varied a lot among teams and team members since roles undertaken by students affected their level of learning. Considering common problems reported in capstone projects, the most common ones were related to testing, task management, effort estimation and technology skills [37].…”

“…Despite a considerable interest to find ways of helping students to quickly become efficient software developers and blend into the IT work place, there are few empirical reports of problems that students face in capstone projects as well as of learning outcomes students perceive to have achieved after completing a capstone project [37]. Thus, this paper aims to present an experience report of how a joint effort between industry and university can increase undergraduate student satisfaction with skills learned at university and their application in a real project.…”

Compartilhamento De Sentido Ao Traduzir Objetivos Da Organização Em Sistemas De Informação

“…A relevância da efetiva implantação se deve ao fato de que, por ao menos dez fatores diferentes (ANTONY, GUPTA, 2018), nem sempre um objetivo de mudar aestratégia de uma empresa se transforma em uma mudança real. Também na fase de implementar a estratégia por meio do uso de sistemas de informação para automatização de tarefas operacionais, existem muitos problemas, principalmente associados ao desenvolvimento de sistemas de informação (LIEBEL et al, 2018;SMALLA e WAINWRIGHT, 2018;VANHANEM et al, 2018). O sucesso no desenvolvimento de sistemas de informação depende da relação entre usuários e analistas de sistemas, pois no centro do processo está a necessidade de haver entre eles entendimento compartilhado (MALANOVICZ, BRODBECK, 2017).…”
