1.	Understanding basic concepts independent of language 
implementation: Basic computing, object-oriented, and 
programming concepts. 	
Evidence: 
	Students will have at least five programming 
assignments and at least three exams.  These will require them 
to demonstrate the ability to write and test programs.  The 
simplest of these will require them to declare variables and 
use them in assignment statements and selection.  The exams 
will contain objective questions and programming problems.  
2.	Be able to design algorithm for given problem situation 
and implement using programming language. 
Evidence: 
	Design and implement a program that contains loops and 
arrays.
„X	Design and implement a program with a database 
interface.
3.	Be able to test and debug a program.  
Evidence:
	Finding and fixing syntax and logic errors
	Applied techniques for preventing errors
4.	Understands and can apply standard documentation 
practices.  
Evidence:
	Write IPO and pseudocode for the programming ssignments 
and some of the exam questions

•	Course Topics: 
Data types, Constants, Variables, Arrays, Operators and 
expressions, Assignment statements, Conditional statements: if, 
case, etc.
Input/output, Loops - for, while, do-while, Operations with 
sequential files, methods, Working with databases, and 
Exception Processing
1	The course outline will depend on the text book(s).  It 
will look very much like the current 4600 with more emphasis on 
object oriented topics

"A Culture of Honesty" is The University of Georgia's policy about academic honesty.
Every student who enrolls at the University agrees to be bound by the policy.
This means that each student has a responsibility to read the policy and comply
with it. It’s no defense to a charge of academic dishonesty to say 
‘I didn’t know that was prohibited.’ Students must perform all of their academic
work without plagiarizing, cheating, lying, tampering, stealing, receiving 
assistance from others (unless the faculty member authorizes that assistance) 
or using sources to assist in that work (without giving fair attribution).

A pamphlet published by the UGA Office of the Vice President for Instruction]. 

We appreciate the fact that honesty runs rampant in our classes. We strive 
to have a culture of complete academic honesty. Thus, The University’s Academic 
Honesty Policy is in effect. However, violations have actually occurred. If an 
alleged incident occurs, the situation will immediately be documented and 
sent to the Office of the Vice-President for Academic Affairs for processing, 
and your grade in this course will be an NR (Not Reported) until the matter has 
run through due process. Officials in that Office will directly contact all 
parties involved. If you have any questions, refer to The University’s Academic 
Honesty Guidelines in University of Georgia Publications for more details on the 
rules and procedures (also at www.uga.edu/ovpi). Again, 
we do appreciate your honesty. 

Further Explanation of the Academic Honesty Policy: We do want to point out that 
the Academic Honesty Policy does not apply to helping someone understand basic 
concepts, explaining to someone the interpretation of an assignment, or clarifying 
how to use software. Please help each other, unless you are taking an exam or quiz. 
This can save valuable time and aggravation (trust us), and really reenforce your 
learning. The policy applies to materials turned in for grading (quizzes, exams, 
assignments, programs, etc.). Homework assignments, quizzes and exams are 
individual effort. Each assignment is supposed to represent your work, not someone 
else's. Of course you may discuss the assignments with others in the course, 
this can be beneficial to all. Getting help to learn how to do something in Visual 
Basic is very differnt from using someone else's work as the basis for your own 
work. Make sure, however, that in the end you do your own assignments. You are not 
allowed to copy material from others, or integrate data files or code written by 
others into your work (except as provided by or indicated by the Instructor). 
Of course, quizzes and exams are always to be individual efforts, and no 
consultation or communication of any kind is allowed during exams and quizzes. 
All evidence of duplicated work will immediately be forwarded to the Office of 
the Vice-President for Academic Affairs (see above). Refer to The University’s 
Academic Honesty Guidelines in University of Georgia Publications for more details 
on the rules and procedures (also at www.uga.edu/ovpi). 
See the Exam and Quiz Procedures under Grading and Grade Posting Policies. 
If you have any questions, just ask. 

Academic Honesty and Group Work Policy: Please note that if a group member does 
not participate in a group assignment, The University's Academic Honesty Policy 
prohibits his or her name from appearing on it. 

Individual Work: It is expected that students will learn from the Instructor, 
texts, other books, and possibly  from fellow students. All materials submitted 
for a grade must be the student's own effort (except for group assignments, 
if any). (For group assignments, materials submitted for a grade must be from 
the efforts of the students who are members of the group and no others.)
Assignments in this category are to be accomplished individually. This means 
that you are not to solve problems together or compare answers prior to turning 
in the work. Cooperative efforts on individual work will result in an immediate 
score of zero for all parties involved. The situation will immediately be 
forwarded to the Office of the Vice-President for Academic Affairs. Please refer 
to The University's Academic Honesty Policy (http://www.uga.edu/ovpi) for more 
details.

Exam and Quiz Procedures: A list of procedures are stated formally to indicate what 
kinds of incidents can be suspect in terms of alleged infractions of The University 
Academic Honesty Policy during testing. 

     Do not talk or share materials during an exam or quiz. 
     Do not wear a baseball cap during an exam or quiz. 
     Do use the restroom before you start an exam or quiz. Trips to the restroom 
        can be suspect. 
     Do not use email during an exam or quiz (see policy stated elsewhere as well). 
     Do not leave an exam or quiz early. Wait until time is called.
