Abstract

Software development is a problem-based learning (PBL) exercise in which students working in groups are asked to find their way to a resolution for a given task. Due to that the progress and approaches to the task differ from group to group, it is difficult to capture the situations of the group working. Moreover, the approaches of guidance to the students in groups are also different because the groups are various in the abilities. To solve these problems, we embed the three visible factors, ‘Activities’, ‘Group Features’, and ‘Challenge’, into this exercise to bring up the motivation of the students. In this paper, we describe how to figure out the visible factors and report a comparison of the evaluation on the exercises that were conducted in FY2006 and FY2010.
