General Education Information Approved College Associate Degree GE Applicability CSU GE Applicability (Recommended-requires CSU approval) Cal-GETC Applicability (Recommended - Requires External Approval) IGETC Applicability (Recommended-requires CSU/UC approval) Articulation Information CSU Transferable UC Transferable Methods of Evaluation Essay Examinations Example: Discuss how to do the following with Web Forms: interact with the user, maintain state, render controls, display data, and generate appropriate HTML. Rubric Grading. Objective Examinations Example: Sample Questions: The commands for interacting with the database take the form of __________. a. .NET b. XML c. SOAP d. SQL Problem Solving Examinations Example: Write the code to build and retrieve data through a Web Form. Rubric Grading. Projects Example: The semester project is an opportunity for you to apply what you have learned in class to a real-world situation. You get to choose the topic. The only requirement is that the project must incorporate some of the concepts and principles that you have learned in class this semester. The semester project must be an original web site. If your web site was not created from scratch, then you must show us what it looked like before you started. In other words, if you are planning to do a "makeover" on an existing web site, then you must show the "before" and "after", so that we have a clear picture of your involvement. Rubric Grading. Reports Example: Write a research paper that covers the following topic: Compare and contrast ADO data handling with object-oriented programming. In particular, explain the use of Encapsulation, Inheritance, and Polymorphism. Use examples to illustrate the differences as they relate to a particular task. Cite references to current published works. Rubric Grading. Repeatable No Methods of Instruction Laboratory Lecture/Discussion Distance Learning Lab: Following an instructor discussion on Databinding, each student will create a program that demonstrates Databinding Data to User Interface Controls. Tasks would be design, coding, and debugging. The topic for the hands-on activity is chosen to reinforce the lecture and to prepare them for the homework assignment. (Laboratory Objective 10) Lecture: Slide show presentation interspersed with topic-specific video clips and live demonstrations of programming techniques. For example, the lecture topic might be Databinding using Visual Basic. First, review background and general terminology using PowerPoint. Second, do a live demonstration on Databinding Data to User Interface Controls. Third, students will then investigate further by shummarizing a topic-specific video clip from a website like this one: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/beginner/bb30882 aspx. (Lecture Objective 9) Distance Learning Instructor present a video lecture on Databinding. Have each student create a program that demonstrates Databinding Data to User Interface Controls. Tasks would be design, coding, and debugging. The topic for the hands-on activity is chosen to reinforce the lecture.Students need to upload their work to Canvas. (Lecture Objective 9; Laboratory Objective 10) Typical Out of Class Assignments Reading Assignments 1. Students will read the assigned pages from the textbook and be prepared to discuss in class the use of databases in conjunction with Web Forms. 2. Students will read the assigned pages from the textbook and be prepared to discuss in class the use of Crystal Reports for generating database-driven reports. Writing, Problem Solving or Performance 1. Students will complete all of the Case Studies at the end of the chapter and test the retrieval of data through a Web Form to make sure that it works correctly. 2. Students will complete all of the Case Studies at the end of the chapter and generate reports that show customer information.
