Teaching
PROG 101 Introduction to Programming
Learn programming concepts as you problem-solve with code, develop algorithms and create object-oriented applications. Topics covered throughout the semester include data structures, repetition, sequence control structures, program design, testing and foundational programming best practices.
PROG 201 Object Oriented Programming I
Create applications utilizing object-oriented, event-driven strategies. Design principles such as modularity and abstraction, and object-oriented principles such as encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism are covered throughout the semester as you build several small projects for your portfolio.
Projects
Code Adventure
Build an adventure game as a console application and along the way learn fundamental programming concepts and C#. http://programmingisfun.com/learn/c-sharp-adventure-game
Programming is Fun
Tutorials and information about programming (multiple languages). http://programmingisfun.com
