Abstract
The goal of this work is to show that precepts from activity theory can be used in software requirements elicitation. Thus, we propose an approach to requirements elicitation using principles from this theory. Initially, we mention common problems found in requirements elicitation. Then we explain the main precepts of activity theory. Finally, we present a case study using the suggested approach to requirements elicitation
