Means of Contact

It is my goal to make myself available to you to aid in your learning, not only in this course, but also as you continue on your educational journey. Always feel free to come to me with any questions or problems you may have. My preferred means of contact is via Slack. My goal is to respond to all correspondence within 24 hours on business days; on weekends, a response may be a bit slower. I also welcome private messages via Slack, emails, and phone calls. If you need to meet with me, the best time is during my office hours. If you need to meet with me at any other time, feel free to contact me, and I will be happy to make alternate arrangements with you.

Letters of Recommendation / Job References

Upon leaving school, your instructors can be one of the best sources for letters of recommendation and references during your job search. I will be pleased to write a recommendation for you as you begin your job search. The message that I would like to convey to you is perhaps best described here. Thanks to the original author for posting his policy publicly.

Course Description

Introduces object-oriented programming and design, with a focus on building the conceptual framework necessary to understand and build object-oriented programs. This course uses C# .NET, the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and other tools to present concepts from a variety of perspectives. Learners will create UML diagrams and write/debug C# .NET applications, applying the object-oriented basics of abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism. Additional topics include: object instantiation/lifetime/scope, methods, properties, visibility modifiers and collections/multiplicity.

Additional Course Information

This is the cornerstone course of the “IT – Software Developer” family of degrees. As such, while many IT courses require an extensive amount of dedication outside of class time, this course is especially demanding. Be prepared to spend a minimum of 7 to 12 hours per week – in addition to class time – on learning and assessment activities for this course.

All source code turned in – for labs, assignments, or tests – must be StyleCop compliant. Any source code not meeting this requirement may receive up to a 20% deduction.
