Abstract
Software Engineering lab exercises are aimed at helping students to prepare for real world programming jobs by helping them to absorb software development terminology through hands-on practice with important skills such as requirements gathering, effort estimation and workflow. These exercises are often done in groups, which is rare in lower level classes but is critical to software development in the real world. Group work in traditional programming languages is problematic. Students often have a hard time coordinating responsibilities and many student group projects flounder because one or more group member either does not finish or does not contribute a module that can be integrated to form a working code. Such exercises are not plete failure as stud
