Description

This course introduces students to the Java programming language.

The course emphasizes problem-solving using an object-oriented methodology. Students will learn the Java programming language, study data structures, analyze algorithms, and get a deep understanding of object-oriented programming. This course is entirely web-based, so there’s no additional software to download or install. Each interactive lesson practices hands-on coding, while students learn to design and build and debug Java programs to solve real world problems.

Lessons also include free response practice questions and multiple-choice quizzes.

Students will gain foundational computational thinking skills, including:

Program Design and Algorithm Development: Determine required code segments to produce a given output.
Code Logic: Determine the output, value, or result of given program code given initial values.
Code Implementation: Write and implement program code.
Code Testing: Analyze program code for correctness, equivalence, and errors.
Documentation: Describe the behavior and conditions that produce identified results in a program.

Course Materials and Requirements: This course require a modern desktop computer, laptop computer, Chromebook, or Netbook with Internet access and a Chrome (29+), Firefox (30+), Safari (7+), or Edge (20+) browser. No downloads required.
