An activity-based approach to up-skilling teachers who teach engineering of software products

Abstract

Effective up-skilling for teachers involved in teaching software products should take into account the challenges of teaching practice. Despite the long practice of organizing the teaching of computer science in educational organizations in Russia, relevant up-skilling courses are not methodologically supported. The paper presents an active, practice-oriented approach to the organizing of up-skilling courses for teachers who teach the creation of software products in the framework of intensive forms of education and on the model of training for students used in intensive schools for development, design, promotion and management of software products.
