In this paper, we describe a collaborative course experience between students from universities in the USA and Turkey. Student teams worked together on a software engineering project for a non-profit organization based in Turkey. The students learned valuable skills in team-work, collaborationfacilitating software tools and working with peers from a different culture and a different time-zone. At the end of the course, in a focus group, students were asked for feedback regarding the course and its outcomes. In this paper, we describe the course from the student perspective. From this, and the instructor's experiences we provide a list of guidelines.

“…Tabrizi et al [5] propose a set of guidelines for international group projects, including creating holiday calendars, choosing the project to limit the challenge in gaining new skills for some team members, formalising team meetings and assigning tasks to distributed pairs. Nordio et al [6] identify three main challenges for distributed student projects: interface specification, project management and communication.…”

This paper describes an Erasmus Intensive Programme that used international collaboration as a novel pedagogical approach to teaching programming skills to firstyear students in a blended learning context using a mixture of virtual environment and intensive teaching. The experience and outcomes of the Programme are evaluated from the viewpoints of the students and instructors and conclusions are drawn on the value and conduct of international student collaborations.

This paper investigates the evolution of software project support for teaching and research projects in higher education. It therefore analyses the results of two surveys conducted with students of the department of computer science of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Hannover in February 2009 and November 2010. The surveys focused on examining the experiences and requirements of the students. Beneath mere technical requirements the surveys also investigate the acceptance of social software elements in project support. Since containing a core of equal questions the answers to the two surveys allow to deduce trends. These trends towards more sophisticated supportive software tools and environments are further investigated not only to allow a better support for projects, but also to make projects more visible and valuable, preserving their achievements and making them accessible for others.
