  • Abstract
    Including projects in courses is widely recognized as important in preparing students for their profession. These courses are however quite complex with often contradictory ideas about how to actually run them in order to reach the learning objectives. This paper presents parts of a larger study where desired learning outcomes are contrasted against collected experiences from students.
