| Title | Software Design and Architecture Comparison (Eclipse vs Openstack) |
| Overview | Students will research existing software design documents and resources for both projects and then write a report detailing their differences and helpfulness to various levels of developers. |
| Prerequisite Knowledge | What topics and tools does the student need to know prior to beginning this activity? |
| Learning Objectives | What should the student be able to do after completing completed this activity?. |
Background:
Is there background reading material?
Are there other activities the student should have done first?
What is the rational for this activity?
Include helpful hints to faculty here.
Background reading:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_design
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_design_pattern
- http://www.openu.ac.il/personal_sites/download/galezer/SoftwareDesign.pdf
- This paper describes how they had to get students to re-think how they write code. The students needed to think more outside of the syntax of the actual language, and more toward software design / repeatable design patterns that dont depend on the coding language.
- I am looking at this paper and thinking about the various tasks or activities that they show were done in their classroom. I may be able to use these ideas.
- “It should be re-emphasized that practical programming does not play a central role in the unit. At the end of the year students and teachers realized that programming in itself is not the main goal.”
