摘要
We present the complete results of our 1998 survey of software practitioners. In this survey we asked over 200 software developers and managers from around the world what they thought about 75 educational topics. For each topic, we asked them how much they had learned about it in their formal education, how much they know about it now and how important the topic has been in their career. The objective of the survey was to provide data that can be used to improve the education and training of information technology workers. The results suggest that some widely taught topics perhaps should be taught less, while coverage of other topics should be increased. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
