Description
The Software Engineering program at Fairfield University has integrated a service learning component into its curriculum to expose software engineering students to the community-engaged scholarship learning model reflecting Fairfield University’s mission of integrating living and learning. The Capstone Project course in the Software Engineering program was designated as the first service-learning course in the School of Engineering in 2009 to provide service to community organizations that are in great need of quality software applications to facilitate their work. The poster will provide the technical details of the system with diagrams and snapshots as well as the summary of students’ leaning through reflection and reports. The future improvement of the project is also included.
