Object Oriented Design and Programming

Semester 2, 2008
Last Update: 3 February 2008

Short Description:
This course teaches the fundamental ideas behind the object-oriented approach to
programming; through the widely-used Java programming language. The course concentrates
on those aspects of the Java language that best demonstrate object-oriented principles and
good practice. The course also teaches students to describe and communicate their object-
oriented design.
Before studying this course, you should be confident of your ability to use a PC and have
some experience of writing small programs, such as that gained through study of DDP
(Dasar-Dasar Pemograman / Fundamental of Programming). You should also be able to write
short explanations of technical ideas in your own words, and be able to communicate with
others electronically.

Course Objective (as written in The Official Academic Guide 2006):

Mata ajar ini mengajarkan konsep-konsep dan teknik-teknik dasar OOP (Object-Oriented
Programming), dalam konteks pengenalan Ilmu Komputer. Bahasa yang digunakan adalah
bahasa Java. Topik-topik yang akan dibahas meliputi: elemen-elemen dasar bahasa Java,
termasuk: ekspresi, variabel, statement, method, tipe-tipe data primitif, dan pengenalan
konsep Class. Inheritance, konsruksi subclass, polimorfisme, overloading, overriding,
interface dan abstract class, access control, event handling, array dan vector. GUI (Graphical
User Interface) yang meliputi: Java Swing package, Stream dan File, Exception handling.
Pengenalan Software Life Cycle dan Object-Oriented Design dengan UML (Unified
Modelling Language)

Course Content:
In the object-oriented view of software, programs are considered to be collections of objects
that interact by sending messages to one another and reacting to the answers to those
messages. These ideas are at the forefront of modern software development.
The course takes an ‘objects first’, approach to teaching: you start seeing and interacting with
graphical objects right from the very start. This is achieved by working within innovative and
engaging micro worlds that allow you to learn some basic object-oriented principles, before
having to get to grips with Java syntax or source code.
The course will provide brief discussion on Java language construct due to the assumption
that the student should already familiar with control statements and the logic behind it from
the prerequisite course (DDP). The course will introduce the OO characteristics in Java
together with its construction. Sufficient programming exercises are given to provide student
with first hand experience on doing OO programming and design.
To facilitate the teaching of Java, the course makes use of BlueJ, an integrated development
environment (IDE) specifically developed for teaching and learning object-oriented
programming. BlueJ is used worldwide and is designed to be easy to use and places special
emphasis on visualisation and interaction techniques to provide a highly interactive
environment that encourages experimentation and exploration.
