You will learn the fundamental concepts and terminology of software application development and develop skills in designing and writing simple computer programs. The course assumes no programming background and provides an overview of the software development process in addition to introducing importan

t programming constructs and methodologies.

It provides students with the knowledge and skills needed to develop applications in Microsoft Visual Basic® .NET for the Microsoft .NET platform. The course focuses on user interfaces, program structure, language syntax, and implementation details.

This is the first course in the Visual Basic .NET curriculum and can serve as the entry point for other .NET courses.

This course is intended for novice programmers who wish to learn how to develop Microsoft Visual Basic .NET program, individuals who are contemplating a career in software development and who wish to understand the fundamentals of computer programming, and Web designers who want to understand how programs and scripts can make Web sites more dynamic.

After completing this course, you will be able to describe the software development process, its purpose, critical steps, and where programming fits in that process, create a simple Visual Basic .NET–based application based on the Windows Application template, use forms and controls to create a user interface, create and use variables and arrays, create and use Sub and Function procedures, including predefined functions, implement decision structures and loops by using conditional expressions, validate user input for fields, controls, and forms, apply object-oriented programming techniques to create classes, add methods, and add properties, resolve syntax, run-time, and logic errors by using the debugger and structured exception handling, enhance the user interface by adding menus, status bars, and toolbars, create a simple Visual Basic .NET–based Web Forms application that uses an XML Web Service, access and manipulate data in a Microsoft Access or Microsoft SQL Server database by using Microsoft ADO.NET, and build, package, and deploy an application.
