LEON-SIGG, María de; VILLA-CISNEROS, Juan L.  and  SOLIS-RECENDEZ, Blanca E.. Use of ISO/IEC 29110 Standard to Train Undergraduate Students in Software Engineering Processes. RISTI [online]. 2020, n.40, pp.60-72.  Epub Dec 31, 2020. ISSN 1646-9895.  https://doi.org/10.17013/risti.40.60-72.

Software engineers need to use software processes during their professional practice to be able to manage projects, coordinate teams, and measure quality of developed products. Even when the learning on software engineering processes should happen while engineers are being trained in university, there is still a gap between what is learned during their undergraduate education and what is needed to work in the software industry. To reduce this gap, the authors of this paper propose the use of the ISO/IEC 29110 standard to train undergraduate students. With the use of the action-research approach, it was found that it is possible to use the standard with minor modifications in its implementation, in such a way that small teams of students are able to use it as part of their training as engineers.

Keywords : ISO/IEC 29110 Entry Profile; software engineering processes; training; undergraduate students.
