Impedance Mismatch

I have observed that a large number of fresh Canadian Graduates have difficulty in adopting the Software Engineering Basics. In particular they have the peoblem in the following ares.


1.0 UML Modeling
2.0 Usage of any Class Librray
3.0 Design Patterns
4.0 Testing Methodology
5.0 System Integration
6.0 Release Control
7.0 Effective Communication.


Im gathering Information as to what can be done about this gap in theory and practice.
The gap I call Impedence mismatch. More on this later.
