This paper aims to present an academic experience in which a real world software development problem can be tackled by four classes of students. Within this context, it was proposed by the professors the development of a project named SI-GAC, an acronym in Portuguese of what could be freely translated to English as “Integrated Accident and Crisis Management System”. This project, with social community benefits, had as its main objective to develop an embedded software system for crisis management. The Scrum framework and Agile Methods were used, with the purpose of training the students in these technologies with a real world problem. Four sprints were exercised and it was possible to show that, with some adaptations, even for geographically dispersed teams the results achieved were satisfactory.
