The Triangulation Assessment Model for Capstone Project in Software Engineering

In this article, we discuss how to assess the capstone project in the software engineering domain. The main problem to assess the capstone project in software engineering is the subjectivity and non-standardization of the assessment model. Therefore, there are some challenges to make the assessment consistent between one project to the other. This article proposed a triangulation assessment model for two types of capstone projects in software engineering fields based on the Delphi study performed in one academic year in winter and spring 2019. This article evaluates the consistency of the triangulation assessment model in 10 capstone projects. As a result, the Delphi study clustered this article contribution into three themes: (1) typical capstone project in the software engineering field, (2) triangulation of assessment model in capstone, (3) the characteristics of successful capstone project. © 2020 IEEE.
