  abstract =     "Becoming a quality software developer requires
                 practice under the guidance of an expert mentor.
                 Unfortunately, in most academic environments, there are
                 not enough experts to provide any significant design
                 mentoring for software engineering students. To address
                 this problem, we present a collaborative software
                 design tool intended to maximize an instructor's
                 ability to mentor a group of students. Students use the
                 system to create software designs for a given set of
                 requirements. While they work, students receive
                 automated feedback regarding common design mistakes.
                 The system then provides support and guidance for
                 students to manually critique each other's work.
                 Students can view and learn from the design approaches
                 taken by other students, as well as the critiques
                 associated with them. We have tried this approach in
                 software engineering classes with some positive
                 results. We believe that this collaborative and
                 partially automated approach can significantly improve
                 the quality of software design education when few
                 mentors are available.",
