Instructor and Prerequisites  Instructor: Dr. Peter G. Raeth   Course Website:  Required Prerequisites: CIS 111  Prerequisite Skills and Competencies:  Develop and apply problem solving skills (CIS 111)  Apply data fundamentals: file/record/field, data types and data for testing (CIS 111)  Apply the program design process (CIS 111)  Apply the program development process: design, code, test and debug programs which include input and output, sequence, selection, and repetition. (CIS 111)

What this course is  11-week intro to object oriented concepts  Object oriented design principles and practice  Understanding and use of UML  unified modeling language for OO designs  Beginning practice with OO using Alice

Two Required Texts  The Object-Oriented Approach John W. Satzinger and Tore U. Orvik  Learning to Program with Alice Wanda P. Dann, Stephen Cooper, Randy Pausch

Course Learning Objectives  Evaluate and understand the benefits and challenges associated with an object-oriented analysis design approach to software and project development.  Identify the key concepts used in object-oriented development including inheritance, encapsulation, and polymorphism.  Identify design patterns in term of participating objects and classes and the roles they take on relative to the problem the design solves.  Investigate and evaluate OOA&D tools, methods, and models that are available and currently used in business practice.  Apply object-oriented concepts in the design of a stable system and programming project.  Use MS VISIO to document OOD diagrams that meet UML standards.  Use Alice to implement OOP derived from OOA and OOD.

CIS Degree Outcomes  Identify, analyze, and document computer system specifications, and information requirements within the business environment.  Exhibit professional/occupational behavior and work habits.  Correctly design and program a computer solution using event driven object-oriented techniques.  Apply program development techniques that demonstrate a formal process for decision making and problem solving using classic methods as well as object-oriented methods.  Identify, analyze, and document program/system specifications and information requirements for a typical business problem.  Implement analysis and design for practical application
