Systematic Literature Review Regarding Communication Support in Project-Based Learning of Software Development

Project Based Learning targeted at software development (SD-PBL) has been paid attention to as a practical education method. A number of studies regarding communication support in SD-PBL have been conducted. However, systematic review in the field does not exist as far as we know. Therefore, this paper conducts systematic literature review regarding communication support in SD-PBL and shows current trends. We find this research field has been actively conducted since 2011, in addition, more studies used existing tools rather than developed original tools, in particular, Learning Management Systems were used. On the other hand, no used software engineering tools like contemporary popular GitHub and Slack combination.
