一句话：提出 OpenSMALS 开放仓库，帮助教师应用主动学习策略教授 UML 软件建模，并通过设计循环迭代验证其效果。
软件建模是软件工程教育的核心，但学生学习困难，教师因多种障碍不愿采用主动学习策略，且少有研究关注如何缓解这些障碍。为帮助教师在使用 UML 图教授软件建模时实施主动学习策略，本文采用设计科学研究（DSR），提出 OpenSMALS：一个应用主动学习策略的软件建模教学开放仓库，提供具体实施指南并帮助教师识别最适合其教学情境的策略。作者在四所不同大学开展四个 DSR 设计循环，对 OpenSMALS 进行评估与演化。结果表明，OpenSMALS 能较好地减少教师面临的障碍，并达到可被其他教师采用的成熟度。
Modeling is a core topic in Software Engineering Education. Nevertheless, students face difficulties while learning software modeling. To teach software modeling effectively in computing courses, instructors who usually employed traditional methods could use active learning strategies. However, instructors are reluctant to change their teaching approaches due to several barriers that hinder the application of active learning strategies. Besides, relatively little research addresses how to mitigate them. The objective of this research is to help instructors implementing active learning strategies when teaching software modeling with UML diagrams. To achieve this objective, we conducted a Design Science Research (DSR). We proposed an artifact called OpenSMALS, an Open Repository for teaching Software Modeling applying Active Learning Strategies. OpenSMALS provides specific guidelines on how instructors can apply these strategies and helping instructors to identify the active learning strategies best suit their teaching context. We performed four DSR Design Cycles---in four different universities---to evaluate and evolve OpenSMALS. Our results show that OpenSMALS satisfactorily reduced the barriers faced by instructors, and it achieved an appropriate maturity level to be adopted by other instructors.
