Introduction to JAVA Programming

Course/Workshop Title: Introduction to JAVA Programming
Course/Workshop Duration: 40 hours
Course Overview/Objectives: The objective of this course is to introduce basic JAVA programming concepts to design and implement of solutions to specific problems. In addition, the course provides experience in the management of application development environments. The course examines the organization of computer programs and the control structured used to manage the flow of instructions. Primitive data types are introduced along with techniques for manipulating those data types and their use in building aggregate data structures such as strings, and arrays. Techniques for improving readability and maintainability are taught including appropriate documentation techniques and program modularity, initially through functions, and later though object oriented techniques.
Expected Learning
Outcomes/Competencies:
At the end of this course participants will be able to:
  1. Differentiate and convert between various data types and apply the appropriate ones in programming statements
  2. Analyze problems, construct and implement solutions using selective, iterative and sequential statements
  3. Define, implement, and use predefined and user defined functions
  4. Use arrays and strings and solve problems efficiently using loops
  5. Use application development environments as professional tools in program development (e.g., Netbeans) to write, test and debug programs
Who should attend This workshop is designed for candidates with high school degree.
