摘要：
There is a large gap between the scale anti complexity of typical software products anti examples used in software engineering education. Since complexity is considered tin essential property of software systems, this gap creates a problem for software engineering students anti educators. Studying open source software can provide software engineering students with realistic anti challenging examples and pragmatic instances of abstract concepts such as software design patterns. For software engineering educators, the vast array of freely available software sources allows selection to suit their educational objectives and constraints. This paper reviews how open source software is used in a software engineering studio course and discusses the outcomes from the perspectives of students and educators.
