Flipping Software Engineering Course to Improve Students' Practical Skills

This paper presents the use of flipped learning in Software Engineering course. Before class, the teacher provides several online videos to facilitate students' as individual learning. Moreover, at the beginning of each class, students are given a short quiz to assess their learning ability. During class, students in teams work on a software development project under teacher supervision. After school, teams continue to finish the project unsupervised. Later teams must present their software specifications. The teacher gives feedback for students to improve the specifications before grading. This learning approach gives a positive impact on students' practical skills. The students' learning ability however still need to be improved.
