Object-Orientation Across Undergraduate Computer Science Curricula

9353958 Lim在过去的几年里，面向对象技术已经成为计算行业的主导技术之一。 在最近的一项调查中，据报道，超过75%的财富100强公司在某种程度上采用了对象技术来满足其计算需求。 这是为了应对软件行业中普遍存在的不断增加的软件维护成本和积压。 由于面向对象正在成为解决问题的主要手段之一，在本科课程中教授面向对象的需求正在增长。 该项目的目的是为来自缺乏计算机设施教授面向对象因而没有这方面的任何正式培训的机构的教员提供为期两周的夏季讲习班。 目标是介绍（1）面向对象的分析和设计，（2）面向对象的程序设计，（3）面向对象的数据库，（4）集成面向对象到计算机科学/信息系统课程，（5）面向对象的教学本科生。 研讨会包括讲座和实验室会议，与会者就上述每个主要主题进行实践练习。 参与者还计划在下一学年在他们的机构利用面向对象技术的课程或课程单元。 研讨会中使用的工具包括大多数大学和学院都很容易获得的廉价或免费软件。 ***

9353958 Lim In the past few years, object-oriented technology has become one of the dominant technologies in the computing industry. In a recent survey, it was reported that over 75% of the Fortune 100 companies have adopted object technology to some degree for their computing needs. This is in response to the increasing software maintenance cost and backlog that is so prevalent in the software industry. Because object-orientation is becoming one of the primary means for problem solving, the need to teach object-orientation in undergraduate curriculum is growing. The purpose of this project is to provide a two-week summer workshop for faculty who are from institutions which lack computing facilities to teach object-orientation and thus do not have any formal training in this area. The objectives are to introduce (1) object-orientated analysis and design, (2) object-oriented programming, (3) object oriented databases, (4) integrating object-orientation into computer science/information system curriculum, and (5) teaching object- orientation to undergraduates. The workshop includes lectures and laboratory sessions in which participants have hands-on exercises on each of the above main topics. Participants also plan a course or course unit utilizing object-oriented technology at their institutions during the subsequent academic year. The tools used in the workshop include inexpensive or free software that are easily obtainable by most universities and colleges. ***
