COOPERATIVE LEARNING AND PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING IN SOFTWARE ENGINNERING

In the last years, the educational innovation appears as an important factor to take into account in the higher education. In this way, the Rey Juan Carlos university of Spain (URJC) invite their teachers to present projects of educational innovation each year. After evaluating all proposals, the URJC only finance some of them. In this paper, we present a part of our project of the educational innovation in software engineering that took place and has been financed by the URJC in the last academic year. Our project was based on the Cooperative learning and the Problem-based learning activities. It was caried out with students at computer science engineering degree. In this work, we will show the experience with the students of the second course. We applied the Cooperative learning and the Problem-based learning activities in the software engineering subject.
