Abstract :
SWENET, the network community for software engineering education, is an NSF funded project to develop curriculum modules of value to faculty members desiring to incorporate software engineering concepts in new or existing courses. By design, the modules are self-contained instructional units ranging from a single lecture to approximately one week of course material. In this way, instructors can adopt, adapt, and arrange modules as appropriate to their courses. This presentation will provide an update on the status of the project including a report of current progress and problems encountered. The session will also address the future of the course materials collection and solicit input on ways to provide ongoing support to the community of software engineering researchers.
