Abstract

This paper describes an implementation and evaluation report of the active learning method eduScrum in flipped class. The eduScrum test class was organized by volunteer participants of the master program Automotive Software Engineering at Chemnitz University of Technology, Germany. The “AUTOSAR based software design” seminar was selected as course for implementation the eduScrum method. The eduScrum method applied during the winter semester 2018/19 and the summer semester 2019. In the first round 30 of 80 students registered to the eduScrum class, and during the second round 40 of 85 students selected the eduScrum test class. The selected course is usually taught in a flipped class format. That was a challenging condition for the implementation of eduScrum. Due to this constrain the traditional way of implementing the eduScrum method needs to be modified and adapted to the given situation. Therefore, e-learning materials developed and placed into the university Learning Management Systems OPAL. The OPAL is online-based platform for academic teaching and learning at universities of Saxony. To measure the success of the eduScrum implementation the students within the test class did a self-evaluation based on the structure oriented evaluation method. The structure oriented evaluation model focuses on evaluation goals.
