MENDIVIL-TORRES, José et al. Comparison of project-based learning for group software development. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2024, vol.14, n.28, e636.  Epub 11-Nov-2024. ISSN 2007-7467.  https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v14i28.1850.

Project-based learning is a methodological strategy that implements tasks based on problem solving, through a process of research or creation by students who work relatively autonomously and with a high level of involvement and cooperation that culminates in a product. This research aims to determine the impact of project-based learning on a software engineering career. However, the research has the characteristic that the whole group focuses on developing the same project. An experiment was carried out where three software development projects were applied to three different groups, for which the performance of the groups was monitored. In the end, a survey was applied to determine the impact of the development of projects in a group. In the results, the groups showed different levels of organization and capacities to fulfill the project in the established times. The groups' technical, methodological, and organizational knowledge was analyzed to measure the impact on their academic performance. This research is helpful since it allows measuring the impact of project-based learning in groups and defines some guidelines to carry out said pedagogical strategy in software development.
