Abstract :
Games and simulation are a great way to learn theories and new behaviors that can be applied to software engineering activities. The presenters are going to teach three games that can be used in a software engineering course or any course that deals with agile methods. The presenters will talk about the benefits of agile development and how these games will solidify behaviors that are essential to successful agile processes.
