Towards an effective software engineering course project

Software engineering instructors face many challenges. Among these challenges is the course project. Instructors are required to train their students on the professional skills to be ready for the real world business, which requires the students to work on real projects. However, because of the low quality of the students´ work, not all of the professional organizations are cooperating to offer a chance for the software engineering students to work on a real project. Therefore, most of the software engineering courses´ projects are in-class project, in which the instructors represent the clients. In this paper, I proposed a solution to this problem based on my experience in involving my software engineering students in real world projects.
