Abstract :
An approach is presented for use in software engineering education project group meetings that can assist in the recording and organisation of requirements and design decisions. The method described derives from Rittel´s (1970) issue-based information systems, and is felt to be particularly suited to the software engineering education environment. Experience with this approach in software engineering classes at the University of Otago and a brief description of a CASE tool under development at the University of Otago to facilitate this method are presented
