Abstract

Unified Modeling Language (UML) courses are an essential part of software engineering curricula. There is increasing evidence that embedding active learning techniques in courses in general, and in UML courses in particular, increases students’ motivation and performance. In this paper, we contribute to this body of work by presenting model for embedding active learning in an undergraduate UML course. The model was used throughout a course, providing interesting results, and promoting students’ participation and motivation. We present our insights and plans for further inspection of the model.
