College Level Computer Science With Java (Unit 6)
Class experience
This is a continuation from Unit 5 and the class details are there. New students should be starting with Unit 1. This is Unit 6 of a year-long course will take you from the basics of digital logic through the design of a computer and into Object Oriented Programming using Java. The successful student will be ready to take many Junior/Senior level college courses. The unique aspect of this course is that I emphasize how memory is used by different languages by using diagrams of memory...

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Eclipse is an "Integrated Development Environment" which allows the learner to write and run code. It is a widely used in the software development world. The learner (or parent) will download Eclipse from the IBM web site and then use it locally on their own computer. Eclipse may be downloaded freely, with no identifying information required. The learner is welcome to use a different IDE, although I will not be able to help them with it.
In unit one, there will be no outside sources. In later units, we will be looking at the Java website for reference. We may read short articles on a variety of computer topics. No book is necessary for this course. Most students will want to purchase a good book for reference, however. I will have suggestions.
