Abstract:
To provide the best training in software engineering, several approaches and strategies are carried out. Some of them more theoretical, learned through books and manuals, others with a practical focus and often done in collaboration with companies. In this paper, we share an approach based on a balanced mix to foster the assimilation of knowledge, the approximation with what is done in software companies and student motivation. A survey was also carried out involving students who had successfully completed the subject in past academic years, some had already graduated, and others are still students. We analyse the results of the survey and share some of the experiences and lessons learned.
