Abstract
The interest on promoting the Academia-Industry partnership in the software development field has been increasingly encouraged by means of research approaches that support the cooperation between researchers and practitioners. The main focus is driven by the collaborative work where the scientific research work meets the real needs of the Industry. Aiming to contribute to this effort we present an approach called Soft Coder (Software Cooperative Design Research) that combines CMD (Cooperative Method Development), a method of Action Re-search, to concepts of DSR (Design Science Research). Our proposal supports the conduction of projects integrating the view-points of Industry and Academia, aiming to add User experience (UX) methods into agile practices. We carried out two studies applying the Soft Coder approach in a software Industry, work in close cooperation with UX and SCRUM teams for building and evaluating artifacts based on UX methods to support practical activities of both teams.
