title = "Introducing requirements acquisition and analysis through a very incompletely specified problem",
abstract = "After succeeding in programming courses, many students in computer science and related areas have developed expectations, habits and practices that make the need for analysis of complex problems-through modeling, requirements and specification-difficult to grasp. Exposing students to a highly incomplete problem description early in a software engineering course promotes internalization of this often critical process. We suggest that analogous challenges may be important across many disciplines and at all levels of education.",
