Abstract :
In this paper, we present a case study based services computing course delivery practice, which includes course preparation, course structure, course enablement, course evaluation and analysis, and audience-specific discussions. The case study is created based on a course offering to students from Internet business system masterpsilas program. Specifically, this paper touches the major course offering challenges, course logistic setting and format, and course coverage. The emphasis is placed on the selection of pedagogically sound materials and methods among the many available services computing related content. In the case study, final open-ended student projects show the feasibility, usefulness and success of this course delivery practice. Lessons learned from the course offering and potential impacts on other degree programs are also discussed in this paper.
