description Different Computer Engineering undergraduate programs over the world are demanding the students to present individual works and, particularly, to present a degree project, which in most cases is related to software development. However, when planning the projects, students find themselves with the problem of choosing a method to develop the software, since existent methods involve team work, but the degree project is supposed to be done individually, in order to evaluate the student’s acquired knowledge. This difficulty leads to projects that fail either to achieve the proposed objectives or to finish on the expected time, among other difficulties. This paper presents a methodological proposal for the development of individual software projects, mainly in academia, named "DeSoftIn", which will contribute to accomplish the project objectives, and will allow the students to approach development methodologies since the beginning of their studies.

La dificultad en la selección de la metodología lleva a que los proyectos no den como resultado el objetivo propuesto o tarden más de lo programado, entre otras dificultades. El presente artículo plantea una propuesta metodológica para el desarrollo individual de proyectos de software, principalmente en la academia, denominado DeSoftIn, que coadyuve al cumplimiento de los objetivos del proyecto y permita a los estudiantes tener una aproximación al uso de metodologías de desarrollo, desde el inicio del programa de estudios.  Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia 2017-05-02 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion investigation investigación application/pdf application/xml https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/6061 10.19053/01211129.v26.n45.2017.6061 Revista Facultad de Ingeniería; Vol. 26 No. 45 (2017); 23-32 Revista Facultad de Ingeniería; Vol. 26 Núm. 45 (2017); 23-32 2357-5328 0121-1129 eng https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/6061/5583 https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/6061/6404
