The course will teach the concepts of data abstraction and encapsulation, as well as the notion of information hiding and objects. There will also be an introduction to more complex data structures and files. You are expected to attend every class and lab. You are expected to try the exercises in the book between class to ensure you understand the material. The labs are used to review the weeks material through hands-on exercises and to handle any problems you may have had over the week.
Attendance is mandatory for the labs.
There are also many Visual Basic Internet sites, so you may want to explore. All assignments must be prepared to a professional level of quality and submitted in a folder. The sheets must be 8.5 by 11 and the first page must be a title page. Ensure that the left hand margins are readable. Be sure to start assignments immediately and don t leave them until the last minute as this will work to your disadvantage.
