  4. Course Description (2004-2005) • This course explores advanced topics in visual applications development. Emphasis is placed upon developing increased program functionality and connectivity with local and remote databases. Other topics: using SQL to construct queries, integrating programming components and libraries, and application development and testing methodologies. Programming projects are required. ITE-370-Fall 2004

  5. Course Objectives Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to … • Demonstrate honesty and integrity in all matters relating to the course. • Design and implement application programs, using the built-in database connectivity features of a visual application development tool, to enable users to view, modify, and query information in a relational database • Write SQL SELECT query statements to solve problems • Design and implement a simple, visual application program that makes calls to an external system library, using techniques of information hiding • Demonstrate the use of self-learning strategies to solve application development problems • Demonstrate the use of testing and debugging techniques in a visual application development environment • Communicate technical information to technical peers (developers) and non-technical stakeholders (users/managers) ITE-370-Fall 2004

  6. Important Dates • Labor Day Holiday Monday, Sep. 6 • Advising Oct. 25-Nov.5, Mon.-Fri. • Thanksgiving Nov. 24-28, Wed.-Sun. • Last day of classes Friday, Dec. 7 • Final Examinations Dec. 9-14, Mon.-Thurs. • Commencement Saturday, Dec. 11 • Grades on PAWS Friday, Dec. 17 ITE-370-Fall 2004

  7. Grading Final grade based on percentage of total points possible, using this scale: • A=90-100% of possible points • B=80-89% of points possible • C=70-79% of points possible • D=60-69% of points possible • F<=59% of points possible ITE-370-Fall 2004

  8. Must “pass” all programs • In addition to the above grading scheme, you are required to make a ‘C’ average or better on all programming assignments. Failure to meet this criterion will result in no higher than a ‘D’ average (69) for the course. You may be given the opportunity to rework any failed assignment in order to meet this criterion; however, for purposes of computing the total grade, the original score will be the one that is counted. ITE-370-Fall 2004

  9. Must “pass” technical presentation • You are also required to make a ‘C’ or better on your technical presentation. This means that you must make your presentation at your scheduled time, and you must perform satisfactorily. Failure to do so will result in no higher than a ‘D’ average (69) for the course. ITE-370-Fall 2004

  10. Regrade Policy • Don’t haggle • Sleep on it • Write it up • Exception: arithmetic errors ITE-370-Fall 2004

  11. Self-Esteem • I don’t try to build it or hurt it • My goal is to make it possible for you to learn, so that you can build knowledge and skills for yourself—not self-esteem • You should have high self-esteem already • Anyone with the prerequisites can succeed if they work hard enough and smart enough ITE-370-Fall 2004

  14. Office hour policy • Although you should use this free learning resource, I may actually have to require you to attend! • For programming problem help, bring: • An electronic copy of the latest version of your program. • A printout of the source code where the error is occurring or where you think the problem lies. • An electronic copy of any data files being used by the program. • A description of your problem, the complete and accurate text of any error messages you are getting, and a description of what you have already tried to do to fix the problem. ITE-370-Fall 2004

  15. E-mail • Use your university e-mail account, available at:  http://jaguar1.usouthal.edu or on PAWS • Make sure CIS has your up-to-date account: http://www.cis.usouthal.edu/email • Send piece of code, not attachments ITE-370-Fall 2004
