Abstract :
We report on the experience we gained in different software engineering project courses at our department. A student who is specialized in software engineering has to complete, besides lectures on software engineering and related fields, two project courses: an "early" basic project course, and a "late" complex project course. For both of them we developed leveled teaching approaches considering the different knowledge and skills of beginners and "advanced" students, respectively. The paper describes, discusses and evaluates these approaches
