我们确定了三个挑战，我们在教学软件工程中使用的材料的出处。我们认为，这些挑战可以通过使用循证软件工程（EBSE）和系统性文献综述（SLR）的主要工具来解决。本文的目的是评估教育和科学价值的本科生和研究生进行一种特定形式的SLR称为测绘研究。采用个案研究的方法，我们要求三个研究生和三个本科生和他们的导师完成一份问卷调查的教育价值的地图研究和他们所遇到的任何问题。学生们发现进行映射研究是一个宝贵的经验，提供了可重复使用的研究技能和研究主题的良好概述。研究生发现它作为学习的起点很有用。本科生报告的问题进行研究在规定的时间尺度。检索和分类文献是困难的。
We identify three challenges related to the provenance of the material we use in teaching software engineering. We suggest that these challenges can be addressed by using evidence-based software engineering (EBSE) and its primary tool of systematic literature reviews (SLRs). This paper aims to assess the educational and scientific value of undergraduate and postgraduate students undertaking a specific form of SLR called a mapping study. Using a case study methodology, we asked three postgraduate students and three undergraduates and their supervisor to complete a questionnaire concerning the educational value of mapping studies and any problems they experienced. Students found undertaking a mapping study to be a valuable experience providing both reusable research skills and a good overview of a research topic. Postgraduates found it useful as a starting point for their studies. Undergraduates reported problems undertaking the study in the required timescales. Searching and classifying the literature was difficult.
