Abstract

Educational Patterns aim at improving education in a practical and proven way, and are mainly applied for designing courses in a way that students can effectively acquire the course's content. But professional software engineers need more competencies than only mastering the technology, like analyzing problems and responding appropriately. We show in this paper that the process of pattern mining can combine these two aspects and helps in integrating competencies in a curriculum. As additional result, learning patterns are documented which help beginning students with their learning process.
