I tend to go in class over a simplified story that resembles their exercise.Then they should see how to use the solution provided for the simplified story in their own exercise.For example:- simple story: managing examinees in exam hall- their exercise: managing containers on shipIf you have time to read the above (long) requirement docs and have feedback, please feel free to share with me privately.--On Tue, Jun 9, 2020 at 9:57 PM Tony V E via SG20 <sg20@lists.isocpp.org> wrote:I've often wondered about giving students code from previous students.Or better yet, give them the code from themselves in first year.I would also like to give a class different parts of a problem - this group do the UI, this group do the backend, etc. Makes marking harder probably, but is more realistic.Of course there is also internship for learning those things.On Tue, Jun 9, 2020 at 2:04 PM Patrice Roy via SG20 <sg20@lists.isocpp.org> wrote:--The big problem in schools is that (in my experience, at least) we don't actually have a body of legacy code to provide, and making students use colleagues' sources (something I tried) tends not to give desired results due to... let's call it "emergent quality of implementation" (it's far from professional code that's evolved over time).
I guess we could make a list of relevant open source projects (with reasons why we think they are relevant) or ask partners from the industry to provide some interesting sources for students to play with... We'd need something stable, however, to avoid students accessing the work of previous years' students.

Objet : Re: [SG20] Wonderful story from Brian Kernighan about an assignment he gave to students.Glad you liked it.
In general, I like the idea of giving assignments where students need to change software. That is what happens the most in industry.
