Abstract

Software engineering course designed for third year students. PBL, has become a highly promising pedagogical strategy. In order to improve the learning experiences and results of students taking software engineering courses, this paper offers a framework for incorporating PBL. The framework stresses active, student-centered learning through the investigation and solution of real-world software engineering challenges, drawing on well-established PBL and software engineering education ideas. The article also discusses obstacles to be overcome when introducing PBL in software engineering courses and offers solutions. Software engineering instructors can help students gain a deeper comprehension of theoretical ideas and practical skills through the use of PBL, equipping them for success in the dynamic and challenging area of software development.
