- Additional information
- Software engineering group projects are an important and common part of undergraduate computer science education, but frequently suffer from social and team issues. This paper was the first in an Anglophone country to explore the gap between student expectations and reality, and to propose strategies to bridge that gap. Selected for a live online discussion in a 12/2020 session hosted by the journal editorial board because of its high download statistics, overall quality and relevance to community.
