Abstract:

Software engineering is a discipline with high requirement of practice. Although practice education in software engineering has achieved much improvement through the ways like the collaboration between colleges and industry, the obvious gap still exists, especially in how to promote the effects of practice education inside the courses. The paper expatiates the main gaps between teaching and practice requirement in engineering education, then discusses how to apply learning factory, problembased learning in software engineering practice education, which have been proved effectively in engineering education. We hope it can provide help for practice education inside college courses.

Key words: software engineering;practice education;learning factory;problembased learning
