9. Course Description
The course teaches students how to develop object-oriented solutions to computational problems. Students learn fundamental concepts of object-oriented programming, basic object-oriented design principles, further develop the programming skills learned in the previous programming course, write medium-sized object-oriented programs in Java programming language.
Topics and techniques covered include design features from objects, classes and objects as encapsulation tools, inheritance and hierarchies among classes, polymorphism, exception handling and GUI/event driven programming.
Object-oriented paradigm for programming-in-the-large in Java; writing sophisticated Java applications with animation and graphic user interfaces.

10. Course Learning Outcomes
By the end of this course students will be able to define, describe and recognize examples of the principles of:
Fundamental object-oriented language features (encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism)
Exception handling
Basic GUI program design
Event-driven programming principles as they apply to graphical user interface (GUI) programs
I/O file management
Multimedia programming
Database –based applications

21. Attendance
Class attendance is required and very important for successful completion of the course. Students are expected to attend and participate in every class which is interpreted as the entire class period and lab period. Excused absences must be planned for, when possible, and justified with documentation. The student is responsible for making up missed class/lab sessions. Late arrival that causes disruption, early departure that causes disruption, excessive conversation among students, and other actions that disrupt the classroom are unacceptable.

22. Use of Laptops/Mobile Phones
Use of laptops/Mobile phones and other electronic devices during the class is not allowed. In order to minimize the level of distraction, all mobile phones must be on mute mode during class meeting times.
