• Course Outcomes
• Requirements for passing

Course Outcomes

A student who successfully completes this course should be able to:

• OO Programming: describe and use the features typically offered by an object-oriented programming language, including support for classes, visibility, inheritance, interfaces, polymorphism and dynamic binding
• OO Design: explain and apply key design principles of object-oriented software development, including separation of concerns, abstraction, information hiding, programming to interfaces, coupling and cohesion, resilience to change, and reuse
• create simple OO design models
• Frameworks: describe important concepts of programming frameworks, including APIs, inversion of control and event-driven programming
• use a framework to develop a multithreaded GUI application
• Concurrent Programming: explain and apply the principles of application-level multithreading: threading, condition synchronization, mutual exclusion, and primitives associated with these

Requirements for Passing

This course is a practical course.  That means you have to pass the practical component (CodeRunner exercises and assignments) as well as the written (test and exam) components.

• CodeRunner Exercises (worth 10%)
• Assignments (worth 10%)
• Test worth 20%
• Final exam worth 60%

 Notes:

• To pass the practical component, you will need to have at least 10% out of 20.
• To pass the written component, you will need to have at least 40% out of the combined test and exam total of 80%.
• You also need an overall mark of at least 50% out the full course total of 100%.
