摘要
In this paper, we present a strategy to help students develop the necessary skills to become effective software engineering professionals. We created a software engineering group, called QualDev. composed mostly of undergraduate students. QualDev places students on real software projects, but with some features to ease their control anti evaluation. Our educational strategy is to use active teaching/learning methodologies that enable its to create scenarios with regular self-assessment. There are many challenges related to setting up and maintaining such a software development team: we relate our experience in creating and evolving the QualDev group, its organization, projects, methodologies. and processes.
