Course description and format:
Java is a powerful modern programming language. In the web site area, Java is not only the server side programming language but the web server itself (Tomcat) is written in Java and the Netbeans IDE is also written in Java.
Typically the first half of the session will be spent on Java Language topics and the second half on web site topics. Both topics are vast and the pace will be fast. This overview course is an appetizer and roadmap for further detailed study. We will do just enough HTML, CSS, JavaScript and MySQL stuff to support the primary focus of the course which is Java, JSTL, EL, and Java Swing GUI’s. We will learn by doing and will go into the minutia as needed rather than study a lot of detailed syntax and semantic rules. In general anything about Java can be found on the Internet using Google, but see the book list for some great books. All software tools used in the course are freely available on the Internet for Window’s, Linux, and Macintosh PCs. These include the Netbeans IDE, the Tomcat web server, and the MySQL database server. The class sessions will use PowerPoint slides and demos with an interactive question and answer style. We will meet in the large comfortable Roosevelt room at the new Maynard Library.
