Person, F.E.O.K. (author), Daalhuizen, J.J. (author), Gattol, V. (author)Teaching students to use systematic design methods effectively is not straightforward. While method teaching often focuses on the procedural aspects of method usage (e.g., what steps to take and in what order), effectively using a systematic method entails more than following its ‘instructions’. As noted by Andreasen [1], students need to be...conference paper 2012
