Abstract

This poster paper explores the dynamics of a col-laborative global software engineering (GSE) course, focusing on project management strategies in distributed settings involving teams from Germany, Indonesia, and Japan. An overview of the course organization and a real-world project to develop prototype solutions for smart tourism is given. This study highlights students' experiences working in multi-national cross-site teams. Difficulties encountered during the project phases, solutions devised and lessons learned by the students are presented. © 2024 IEEE.
