Query: A Platform for Teaching Applied Distributed Software Development: The
  Ongoing Journey of the Helsinki Software Factory   Teaching distributed software development (DSD) in project courses where
student teams are geographically distributed promises several benefits. One
main benefit is that in contrast to traditional classroom courses, students can
experience the effects of distribution and the mechanisms for coping with
distribution by themselves, therefore understanding their relevance for
software development. They can thus learn to take more care of distribution
challenges and risks when starting to develop software in industry. However,
providing a sustainable environment for such project courses is difficult. A
development environment is needed that can connect to different distributed
teams and an ongoing routine to conduct such courses needs to be established.
This article sketches a picture of the Software Factory, a platform that
supports teaching distributed student projects and that has now been
operational for more than three years. We describe the basic steps of
conducting Software Factory projects, and portray experiences from past factory
projects. In addition, we provide a short overview of related approaches and
future activities.
