Abstract

Teaching software architecture and design in a part-time bachelor program implies numerous challenges. Part-time students (all already working) start with heterogeneous knowledge, various practical experiences and different ages which leads to diverse learning types. Additionally, the number of students in our bachelor program has been doubled over the past five years. In this paper we present a step-by-step transformation process toward a flipped classroom model based on several digitalization techniques which are also used in industrial practice and open source communities. We recommend such a gradual transformation which is based on evaluation and feedback to reduce risks. Also, efforts needed for this transformation can be distributed throughout many years.
