Teaching distributed software development (DSD) in project courses wherestudent teams are geographically distributed promises several benefits. Onemain benefit is that in contrast to traditional classroom courses, students canexperience the effects of distribution and the mechanisms for coping withdistribution by themselves, therefore understanding their relevance forsoftware development. They can thus learn to take more care of distributionchallenges and risks when starting to develop software in industry. However,providing a sustainable environment for such project courses is difficult. Adevelopment environment is needed that can connect to different distributedteams and an ongoing routine to conduct such courses needs to be established.This article sketches a picture of the Software Factory, a platform thatsupports teaching distributed student projects and that has now beenoperational for more than three years. We describe the basic steps ofconducting Software Factory projects, and portray experiences from past factoryprojects. In addition, we provide a short overview of related approaches andfuture activities.
