Abstract

Currently there exists a great need to teach project management competence to software professionals. Therefore, learning interpersonal skills is essential. But, there exist, basically, no educational activities aimed at teaching interpersonal skills in computing courses. Within this context, this paper presents an educational activity to teach the difficulties encountered in managing software project teams. The activity has been developed systematically following the instructional design process and has been applied and evaluated in two undergraduate computing courses at UFSC in 2012-1. First results indicate that the activity can have a positive impact on the student’s motivation, user experience and learning.
