Yet many software engineering courses do not involve projects of enough complexity to give students such experience. We sense that service-learning projects, while difficult to manage and sustain, can serve a crucial role in this regard. Through trials in a senior-level software engineering course, we discovered that the open-source approach works well to enable students to work on large, multiple-term service-learning projects. We developed GROw, a cross-term, cross-team educational software process to meet the challenges of adopting complex, real-world projects in one-term courses, and to sustain service learning. %B Proceedings of the 27th international conference on Software engineering %S ICSE '05 %I ACM %C New York, NY, USA %P 613–614 %@ 1-58113-963-2 %U http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/1062455.1062566 %R 10.1145/1062455.1062566
