Abstract
This paper addresses an essential and significant concern in the development of
computer software - its quality. The major proposal of the paper is that computer science
faculty, in their design and implementation of core curriculum; do not devote sufficient
attention to teaching their students how to develop high-quality software. As in industry,
the most common and popular way of assuring the quality of programs is through
software testing. In other words, quality is treated as a late addition or as postscript in
software development. The paper presents and discusses a software quality improvement
by documentation – knowledge management model that can be used to incorporate a
wide variety of quality assurance techniques within a curriculum. The specific focus of
this paper is to uncover various types of errors done by students during software
development, which is been carried out as a part of their master degree programme.
