| Course title |
Java for Web Design |
| Course description |
This hands-on course is designed for experienced programmers that
want to learn Java. Upon completion of this course, students
will be able to: learn the basics of creating Java applets and
applications;
create object-oriented programs using Java; incorporate graphics,
sound, and event handling; use multiple threads to create
animations; and understand
and use inheritance and polymorphism properly. (prereq:
MS-2771 or equiv.) |
| Prerequisites |
MS-2771 (or equivalent object-oriented programming language
experience) |
| Corequisites |
None |
| Required materials |
- Just Java, 5th Edition, by Peter van der Linden, Prentice
Hall, 2002.
|
| Course objectives |
- develop both text-based and windows-based applications that
demonstrate the sound use of object-oriented design principles
and programming practices.
- use components from standard libraries to design interactive
windows-based programs.
- demonstrate an understanding of the Java delegation event
model
- understand the principles of multi-threading and how to
protect shared data from "race conditions"
- understand the algorithms and data structures that are present
in the Java Collections API
- develop an appreciation for the use of design patterns in the
construction of complex, object oriented systems.
