Software Development PBL Focusing on Communication Using Scrum

In this paper, we improved the PBL (Project-Based Learning) environment aiming at the collaborative-software development education by industry-university cooperation. In the fiscal year 2011, the agile technique adopted as the software development process, and the small-scale project was tried. However, there were problems like the shortage of communication between members, the customers and difference of a member\´s technical capabilities and the burden was placed to the individual. In the fiscal year 2012/2013, in order to solve these problems, the development process "Scrum" was adopted. We analyzed the result of projects. In the result, Scrum was being able to perform problem solving in which the member\´s diversity was harnessed. It could carry out improved relations as the team by the positive participation in customer\´s projects. And, it could build the communication base by "making the place team". Therefore, we understood using Scrum for success of projects.
