Abstract :
This paper describes the use of an iterative and agile process model in a software engineering undergraduate course. The proposed model serves both as an educational technique (for teachers) and as a subject of learning (for students). Details are given of the procedures and methods used and related management aspects are also addressed. The results obtained are discussed and compared with a previous experience using a weighted process model. This particular approach has been found a valuable and high satisfactory experience for both students and teachers
