Abstract
The University of Texas' project-based Software Engineering class for undergraduates has used software tools for development and as final products for several years. When the opportunity arose to use Electronic Data Systems' (EDS) in-house development tool, INCASE, in the class, it was a natural extension to earlier work.
The major change is the emphasis on data rather than process modelling. With a CASE tool, students are able to concentrate on requirements elicitation, prototyping, screen design and other more modern topics than are usually covered in a one semester software engineering course. The project is large enough that the software engineering techniques and tools are seen as valuable. The course and CASE tool are described, together with lessons learned and suggestions for similar collaborative efforts.
