A project is an effort to create one-of-a-kind product or service with a limited amount of time.
In this course students experience and gain an understanding of problems faced during project-style software development, and examine solution methods through practical experience.
This course is called a PBL course, and focuses on the following.
(PBL: Project Based Learning)
* think on their own
* communicating with others and team work
* the customer value produced by a system
* development process
Students develop an software product using scrum development process, which is one of agile development processes.
Students form development teams in the first class, and are generally required to be in the same team in Basic II.
By gaining experiences in problems that arise during project-style software development, students gain an understanding of the process of examining solution methods.
