| Course title | Hands-on Introduction to Java 高級程序設計語言JAVA實用介紹 |
| Course description | This course aims to provide an intensive hands-on introduction to the Java programming language. Topics include the basic Java language syntax, variable declaration, basic operators, program flow and control, defining and using functions, file and operating system interface. Specific key features of the Java programming language such as object-oriented methodology, class templates, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, etc. will be highlighted. 本科旨在密集介紹高階程序設計語言Java。包括基本高階程序設計語言Java的語法、變數申明、基本運算符、程序編寫流程及控制、函數定義及應用、文件及操作系統接口。科目亦會介紹高階程序設計語言Java的特性，例如面向對象的方法、類別模板、及其概念如封裝、繼承、多態性等。 |

| Grade Descriptors | A/A-: EXCELLENT – exceptionally good performance and far exceeding expectation in all or most of the course learning outcomes; demonstration of superior understanding of the subject matter, the ability to analyze problems and apply extensive knowledge, and skillful use of concepts and materials to derive proper solutions. B+/B/B-: GOOD – good performance in all course learning outcomes and exceeding expectation in some of them; demonstration of good understanding of the subject matter and the ability to use proper concepts and materials to solve most of the problems encountered. C+/C/C-: FAIR – adequate performance and meeting expectation in all course learning outcomes; demonstration of adequate understanding of the subject matter and the ability to solve simple problems. D+/D: MARGINAL – performance barely meets the expectation in the essential course learning outcomes; demonstration of partial understanding of the subject matter and the ability to solve simple problems. F: FAILURE – performance does not meet the expectation in the essential course learning outcomes; demonstration of serious deficiencies and the need to retake the course. |
