Abstract

Software development is knowledge intensive work. Therefore in this kind of education it is necessary not only to teach theories and/or methodologies according to textbooks but also for students themselves to acquire knowledge through exercises, especially group learning because software development in practical setting is done in the form of project. Knowledge through exercises is acquired by a learner or learners' group through problem-solving, or by interactions between learners' group and the teacher side (teacher and teaching assistants). This paper deals with software inspection as one interaction between learners' group and the teacher side, describes a support system of the interaction and the results of application of the system to an actual software engineering class in a university. According to the results, the author also describes design on a knowledge sharing environment for software engineering education.
