Integrating international students´ contests with software engineering courses Lessons learned and best practices

There are many general computer contests targeting undergraduate and graduate students. The prizes vary from cash, trip, fame, conference participation and others. Contests can be class, school, national, regional or global. This workshop aims to share the knowledge and experience of different educational institutes of integrating students´ contests with academic software engineering courses. The main goal is to identify, discuss and promote best practices to properly benefit from such integration.
