Abstract

A faculty/staff/student team was used as a collaboration model to develop, maintain, and improve mobile applications built for use by students on the campus of California State University, San Bernardino. The team was developed in the software engineering class where the projects are mobile applications requested by real clients in the campus. After the class is over, the students continue the development through independent studies and senior projects. During this time, the students work with a team of student interns and staff from the Administrative Computing Services, Information Technology Division of the campus until the mobile applications are published in both Google Play and Apple App Store. Using the CSUSB Student Opinion of Teaching Effectiveness (SOTE) surveys of the software engineering classes of 2009 – 2013, we found that students learn tremendously through hands-on experience and actual interactions with real clients, and also found that the principles and concepts of software engineering are learned better.
