What is it about?
In this research, we conducted a Case Study to investigate how to students to adopt Software Engineering practices in solving a real problem. We were able to identify at each stage of the Software Engineering process how students organized themselves to compose solutions, from the discussion of the idea to the presentation of a pitch at the end of the event.

Why is it important?
Exploring new ways and strategies to teach and engage the students seems to be positive and necessary. We are always trying to improve the teaching methodologies to motivate students to practice their knowledge.
