Abstract:
As Open Source Software (OSS) has become one of the main approaches for developing new software products, efforts to incorporate real-world OSS projects into the computer science classroom have increased. This paper reviews such efforts and discusses the benefits and challenges of adapting OSS projects in software development or engineering courses. It also presents considerations for selecting and using OSS projects for in-classroom software development.
