This is the second series of my intro to Java Programming classes. As in the first class, I will continue with the basic concepts. STUDENTS WHO HAVE NO EXPERIENCE IN JAVA (VARIABLES, LOOPS, DECISION STATEMENTS, METHODS, EXCEPTIONS, CLASSES, GUI) NEED TO TAKE MY FIRST CLASS - LEARN INTRO TO JAVA PROGRAMMING. I make it easy by introducing fun concepts that will help you start coding immediately. We will start programs in class and homework will be given either to complete small pieces of code or to alter pieces of code. Progress is evaluated by providing simple quizzes that test the concepts as well as evaluating code and assessing the correctness of the code. All code is not the same so creativity will also be assessed knowing that students think differently. Format/Modules: 1. More on decisions, loops and, the switch statement; 2. Files; 3. Loops within loops; 4. Arrays; 5. More on objects and Classes; 6. More on variables and methods; 7. More on the Swing class and other GUI elements; 8. Bringing all the code together - project integration. After each module, there will be a short assessment (e.g. puzzle) to test the concepts covered. Homework will include extending on the code or altering code. For example, for module 1, the student will need to define more variables as they may relate to a Student class. PLEASE NOTE THAT CHROMEBOOKS DO NOT WORK (SORRY).

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree from Georgia State University
The first class was a success and I thought it was necessary to include a second series. I have seen students struggle to grasp programming concepts simply because the concepts are made to difficult. Years of tutoring has made me come up with simplified versions of offering concepts so that learning can be fun and easy.
