The language therefore plays an important part in teaching and learning. This is further underlined by the fact that "discipline-specific language" - which is "the uses of language in university discipline learning and teaching and in professional life in a particular discipline" - can be understood as a link between knowledge and generic/personal/interpersonal competencies; especially communication skills. In this paper a research proposal is outlined to enable an enhanced and conscious approach to the use of language and special terms in Software Engineering in higher education. This is done by a two-piece approach that considers terminology from a linguistic and a didactical point of view. All of this combined is intended to contribute toward the development of a terminology in Software Engineering and, in a wider context, to reach the top goal of this research agenda: To be able to obtain recommendations for action for teaching and learning methods to improve the quality and sustainability of teaching and learning in this discipline.}, subject = {Lehre}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GoldVeerkampAbkeDiethelm2017, author = {Gold-Veerkamp, Carolin and Abke, J{\"o}rg and Diethelm, Ira}, title = {What About Misconceptions in Software Engineering?}, series = {Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)}, booktitle = {Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)}, publisher = {IEEE}, isbn = {978-1-5090-5466-4}, pages = {704 -- 708}, year = {2017}, abstract = {In Software Engineering education didactical foundation is still at its beginnings. In recent years, this topic is put into stronger focus, as Software Engineering becomes more and more important in our everyday life. However, it is hard to teach and learn, because of diverse factors, e.g. the immateriality of the product. Therefore it is significant to improve the learning process on the one hand and to minimise obstacles to learning on the other hand. Other disciplines - with a long historical background in their "Fachdidaktik" (e.g., biology or chemistry) - have already dealt with one sort of learning barriers; so-called misconceptions. The hurdle that misconceptions create can and will be explained by the constructivist learning theory. This paper covers a research approach to identify, analyse, filter and Cluster misconceptions in Software Engineering.}, subject = {Software Engineering}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GoldVeerkampDiethelmAbke2020, author = {Gold-Veerkamp, Carolin and Diethelm, Ira and Abke, J{\"o}rg}, title = {A Mixed Methods Research Agenda to Identify Undergraduate Misconceptions in Software Engineering, Lecturers' Handling, and Didactical Implications}, series = {In Proceedings of the 2020 IEEE/ACM 42nd International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE)}, volume = {2020}, booktitle = {In Proceedings of the 2020 IEEE/ACM 42nd International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE)}, isbn = {ISBN 978-1-4503-7121-6}, pages = {256 -- 257}, year = {2020}, subject = {Hochschuldidaktik}, language = {en} }
