Java Programming 1: Introduction to Java and the Eclipse Development Environment

 

Java Object-Oriented Programming for the Beginning or Intermediate Student

In this course, you'll learn the fundamental concepts and syntax of the Java Programming language. Throughout this course, you will learn by building examples using the Eclipse Java Development Environment which is supplied as a Learning Sandbox. Completion of this course will give you a basic understanding of Object Oriented techniques in Java as well as using the Eclipse IDE.

Upon completion of the course, you will earn 4 CEUs (Continuing Education Units) and a CEU letter from the University of Illinois Office of Continuing Education. This course counts toward the Java Programming Certificate Series.

From beginning to end, you'll will learn by doing your own Java projects, within our Eclipse Learning Sandbox we affectionately call "Ellipse". These projects will add to the student's portfolio and provide needed experience. Besides a browser and internet connection, all software is provided online by the O'Reilly School of Technology.

Prerequisite: Some programming experience. If you are a beginner we recommend either Introduction to Object Oriented Programming or Javascript 1 as barebones introductions to programming.

 

Free ebooks & software included. Click for info on Lab Fees

Our unique learning methods allow you to have 24-hour access to your lab account, including all coursework, files, development tools, online portfolio, and your Instructor's feedback, for as long as you need. This way, your courses are completely self-paced for your busy schedule. You can freeze and unfreeze your lab account when necessary, and you can even keep the account when you've finished your courses -- to have a portfolio for your resume, to keep practicing your skills, or to create prototypes on a safe system.

Base lab fee is a flat $9.95/month, no matter how many courses you are in. (Java Programming courses, Python Programming courses and DBA 3 incur an additional $5.00/month lab fee due to the virtual Windows account used for Ellipse. This is per account, not per course, and it can be removed upon request when not working on these courses.)
