OBJECT ORIENTED TECHNOLOGY Bachelors in E-Business & Commerce EC-150 Breyer State University Instructor: Al Infande Ed.D SYLLABUS COURSE OVERVIEW: Welcome to “Object Oriented Technology”, a Bachelor Level course in the curriculum for the Degree, Bachelor of Science in E-Business & Commerce. I am looking forward to working with you as you study this unique methodology of programming. Experience in a basic programming language such as C or C++ is preferable to understanding the basics of “O-O” technology. This is going to be a very high-paced class that is going to teach you quite a bit about a methodology that is not widely accepted, Object Oriented Technology has the potential to replace the fundamental techniques used in the software industry and in programming methodologies. The principal goal in this course is to familiarize you with the techniques and methodologies that Object Oriented Technology has to offer. We are going to be using two textbooks in this class so that you will be able to see two unique points of view regarding “O-O” applications. The primary textbook will actually explain and define the principles and basics of “O-O” technologies, and give you some example exercises to help you comprehend the methods. In addition to the examples in the textbook, there is also a CD with examples and exercises for you to explore further. While the purpose of this course is to familiarize you with the fundamental basics, I strongly suggest you continue onward and explore the advanced techniques section of the textbook. I am sure you will enjoy this course, programming and E-commerce itself, is continuously undergoing change on almost a weekly basis. Some Computer techniques are static, while others are always evolving. Object Oriented Technologies is one of those innovative areas that offers change and dares to break away from the old “tried and true” methods.
