Workshop on developing software engineering courses using computing curriculum 2001 (CC 2001) documentation

There is a clear need to develop Software Engineering courses to meet local, national and international needs. Recently a joint task force of the IEEE Computer Society and the ACM have been engaged in producing undergraduate curricula and associated documentation known as Computing Curriculum 2001 (CC 2001). For this to be accepted there needs to be involvement by the wider community and evaluation should be undertaken to determine the usefulness of the parts of CC 2001 that is relate to Software Engineering. In this workshop the prime aim will be to evaluate the use of CC 2001 in the development of Software Engineering courses. A final outcome of the workshop will be the production of a report detailing the major recommendations relevant to the aim and the topics considered. This will be circulated to participants and a paper based on it will submitted for journal publication.
