Symposium date: September 29, 2008
Model-driven engineering is becoming increasingly popular in software development projects as it raises level of abstraction thus improving our ability to handle complex systems. In many academic and industrial centers, software modeling has been introduced already into their curricula. Despite this, it seems that education does not yet support the modeling paradigm well enough thus limiting its acceptance as a mature method of developing software systems. The goal of this symposium is to find ways to change this situation. Specifically, the symposium will find ways for showing benefits of modeling in a way that is pedagogically effective and attractive to the students. It will also try to result in recommendations for placing the modeling courses in the overall software development educational path, this not being limited to UML fundamentals but also focused on showing the importance and place of modeling in the overall path from business (environment) to software products.
