On successful completion of this course the student should be able to:
- Create Visual Basic.NET programs that solve simple business problems
- Validate user input
- Construct a Visual Basic.NET class based on a UML class diagram
- Perform a test plan to evaluate his/her work
- Adequately document Visual Basic.NET programs
Course Activities and Design
This course is presented with a combination of lectures and laboratories. Students will be expected to complete programming assignments.
Outcome Assessment Strategies
Students will be expected to successfully complete a group of Visual Basic projects during the course. Although each project is different, the following requirements should be covered so that the student has experience with all topics covered in the course. Not all of the topics listed below need to be included in each project:
- solves a business-oriented problem
- uses event handlers
- uses UML class diagram to construct a simple class
- uses general sub procedures and parameter passing
- uses structured programming
- includes a Do…While loop
- includes a For…Next loop
- includes an If…Then statement
- includes a Select Case statement
- includes a Test Plan
- includes exception handling
- implements a function
- includes adequate in-code documentation
