Teaching Model-based Requirements Engineering to Industry Professionals: An Experience Report

Software Engineering 2021-03-09 v1

Abstract

The use of conceptual models to foster requirements engineering has been proposed and evaluated as beneficial for several decades. For instance, goal-oriented requirements engineering or the specification of scenarios are commonly done using conceptual models. Bringing such model-based requirements engineering approaches into industrial practice typically requires industrial training. In this paper, we report lessons learned from a training program for teaching industry professionals model-based requirements engineering. Particularly, we as educators and learners report experiences from designing the training program, conducting the actual training, and applying the instructed material in our day-to-day work. From these findings we provide guidelines for educators designing requirements engineering courses for industry professionals.
