Description

Information System (IS) higher education is often challenged by declining students’ academic performance and motivation. An alternative might be project-based learning (PjBL), due to its benefits for students, such as increased motivation. However, PjBL often focuses on the development phases and therefore lacks an operational vision. Against this drawback, DevOps might be seen as an advance of PjBL, arguing for a balance between the development and operational phases. Therefore, in this paper, we conducted a systematic literature review (SLR) to answer this question: What are the students’ results when DevOps is applied to the IS teaching context? We collected 339 papers and selected 22 post-filtering. The two SLR main results were: i) DevOps emerged recently in IS education; ii) DevOps is highly related to PjBL; iii) DevOps benefited students’ carrier development, scaffolds students’ grades, and communication. The main contributions of this research are: to describe the state-of-art of DevOps in IS education; to provide a theoretical foundation for IS didactic transposition from IS Industry; to detail the students’ results when utilizing DevOps is applied to the IS teaching context.

DevOps Didactic Transposition in IS Higher Education: A Systematic Literature Review

Information System (IS) higher education is often challenged by declining students’ academic performance and motivation.
