Content, progress and pedagogy of the module
Learning objectives
Knowledge
The student must gain an understanding of methods within the object-oriented programming paradigm. This covers the following aspects:
- Concepts and conceptualisation
- Classes and objects
- Variables and methods
- Encapsulation and visibility
- Data abstraction
- Method signature, parameters, return value, method body
- Aggregrigated classes
- Application of central class libraries and collection classes
- Specialisation and inheritance
- Exceptions
- Systematic documentation of public interfaces
- Systematic test of public interfaces
Skills
can implement smaller programs in an object-oriented language utilizing central features
ability to create an object-oriented program in a buttom-up manner
can implement simple user interfaces in an object-oriented manner
explain and argue for elements and relationships in a small object-oriented program
can perform systematic testing af central parts of an object-oriented program
can document central parts of an object-oriented program
Competences
can implement, document and test an object-oriented program to ensure that it runs and that it is understandable, readable, and accessible for other programmers
Type of instruction
A mix of lectures, smaller exercises and a larger assignment. In the larger assignment, the students, alone or in smaller groups, must develop an object-oriented program that will solve a pre-defined and delimited task
Extent and expected workload
It is expected that the student uses 30 hours per ECTS, which for this activity means 150 hours
