Abstract
We have been applying the stakeholder win–win approach to software engineering education.
The key stakeholders we are trying to simultaneously satisfy are the students;
the industry recipients of our graduates; the software engineering community as parties
interested in improved practices; and ourselves as instructors and teaching assistants. In
order to satisfy the objectives or win conditions of these stakeholders, we have formed a
strategic alliance with the USC Libraries to have software engineering student teams work
with Library clients to define, develop, and transition USC digital library applications into
operational use. This adds another set of key stakeholders: the Library clients of our class
projects. This paper summarizes our experience in developing, conducting, and iterating
the course. It concludes by evaluating the degree to which we have been able to meet the
stakeholder-determined course objectives.
