"Computer science, academia, and industry" educational project

Published: 27 June 2005 Publication History

Abstract

A special program in Software Engineering (SE) for high school has been in operation in Israel whose aim is to expose young students to the field of computing. During their studies the students are required to develop a software project, and thus gain experience in software design. Usually the development processes do not fulfill essential professional requirements, and the students' products are rarely applicable to real world situations. This motivated the initiation of an educational program designated for advanced students. In the first stage of the program, a regional out-of-school class attends an enrichment workshop. In the second stage students develop projects under the apprenticeship-based supervision of professional instructors from academia and industry. The project is currently being implemented for the first time and is being evaluated.
