Abstract :
Software Engineering is an important part of modern Computer Engineering education. A comprehensive course in Software Engineering should include a topic on software metrics. Also, a number of courses practice handing team projects to students. In this paper a number of software metrics are applied to projects developed by students with the purpose of estimating overall team effort. In this way, conclusions are formed about usefulness of these metrics in the context of teaching software engineering.
