Abstract
The University of Sheffield provides undergraduate students with a real experience of software engineering through a module entitled the Software Hut. Here, 2nd year students work in teams competing to build a real business solution for a real commercial client. In this exercise, eXtreme Programming is used. This article provides a few details of this innovative educational programme.
