Abstract

Establishing a distance education program in software engineering is an intricate task. Educators must deal with technology, people, organizations, states, countries, intellectual property, billing, content, course delivery evaluation, etc. The team must put all these pieces together into a coherent, efficient system and support a new production for every course run. Of these educational intricacies, my professional focus has been on pedagogy-the art and science of teaching. In this paper, I articulate and justify a set of pedagogical guidelines for distance education in software engineering based on the literature and my professional experience
