Abstract
Summary form only given. The Personal Software Process (PSP)TM promises to be a powerful tool for software educators. The author describes the PSP and some results achieved by using it. The author also discusses the principles behind the PSP and the reasons why it is effective as a teaching instrument. The author suggests some implications of the PSP for software education. The principal PSP objective is to demonstrate the benefits of using a defined process, planning and tracking development work, measuring engineering performance, and managing work quality. The PSP is introduced with a family of processes and a set of exercises. By following the processes to do the ten exercises, engineers learn the methods and they see from their own data how the methods work for them
