Dr. Herwig Mayr holds a professorship in Software Engineering at the Upper Austria University of Applied Sciences, Hagenberg, for more than twenty years. He teaches project management, software development processes, and quality and risk management. He integrates LEGO into his teaching concepts ever since the very first LEGO Mindstorms sets appeared at the end of the Nineties, which allowed autonomous LEGO devices to be built and programmed.

We illustrate how Action Learning concepts can be integrated into project management courses using LEGO bricks, varying from LEGO Mindstorms sets, over LEGO 4 Scrum and LEGO Creationary, to LEGO Serious Play. Thus, LEGO can both be used for teaching product and process aspects in various lectures at bachelor and master level. We give specific examples and report on our findings and feedback from teachers and students as well.
