Core Course Performance Objectives (CCPOs)

  1. Formulate an optimal solution by analyzing user requirements. (CCC 1, 2, 5, 6; PGC 2, 3, 5)
  2. Compare language constructs of major programming languages. (CCC 2, 5, 6; PGC 2, 3, 5)
  3. Develop online applications using current web programming techniques. (CCC 1, 2, 5, 6; PGC 1, 2, 3, 5)

See Core Curriculum Competencies and Program Graduate Competencies at the end of the syllabus. CCPOs are linked to every competency they develop.

Measurable Performance Objectives (MPOs)

Upon completion of this course, the student will:

  1. Formulate an optimal solution by analyzing user requirements.
    1. Formulate the user requirements suitable for program development.
    2. Examine the various interface design options.
    3. Develop technical documents to implement project development.
    4. Produce user interfaces that incorporate various graphical user interface (GUI) controls.
    5. Choose appropriate languages and tools for the project.
  2. Compare language constructs of current major programming languages.
    1. Compare simple data types of current major programming languages.
    2. Compare user defined data types of current major programming languages.
    3. Compare library supports of current major programming languages.
    4. Choose programming languages for specific application areas.
  3. Develop online applications using current web programming techniques.
    1. Develop optimal solutions for client-side programming.
    2. Develop optimal solutions for server-side programming.
    3. Examine potential bottlenecks between client-side and server-side traffic.
    4. Select current web programming development tools.

Evaluation Criteria/Policies

The grade will be determined using the Delaware Tech grading system:

90-100 = A
80-89 = B
70-79 = C
0-69 = F
Students should refer to the Catalog/Student Handbook for information on the Academic Standing Policy, the Academic Integrity Policy, Student Rights and Responsibilities, and other policies relevant to their academic progress.

Program Graduate Competencies (PGCs are the competencies every graduate will develop specific to his or her major)

  1. Design and implement moderate to complex programs that meet specifications, perform reliably, and are maintainable using the principles of software engineering.
  2. Apply object oriented design principles to software analysis and programming.
  3. Analyze currently available operating systems and software development platforms to design and implement software applications that are effective and secure.
  4. Develop programs in assembly language that directly address the computer architecture.
  5. Develop technical documentation to meet end user requirements.

Core Curriculum Competencies (CCCs are the competencies every graduate will develop)

  1. Apply clear and effective communication skills.
  2. Use critical thinking to solve problems.
  3. Collaborate to achieve a common goal.
  4. Demonstrate professional and ethical conduct.
  5. Use information literacy for effective vocational and/or academic research.
  6. Apply quantitative reasoning and/or scientific inquiry to solve practical problems.

Students in Need of Accommodations Due to a Disability

We value all individuals and provide an inclusive environment that fosters equity and student success. The College is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities. Students are encouraged to schedule an appointment with the campus Disabilities Support Counselor to request an accommodation needed due to a disability. The College's policy on accommodations for persons with disabilities can be found in the College's Guide to Requesting Academic Accommodations and/or Auxiliary Aids Students may also access the Guide and contact information for Disabilities Support Counselors through the Student Resources web page under Disabilities Support Services, or visit the campus Advising Center.
