Introducción a UML (Coursera)

Introducción a UML (Coursera)

Bienvenidos a este curso de introducción al Lenguaje de Modelado Unificado, o UML por su sigla en inglés. Este curso surge como respuesta a la necesidad de los ingenieros de software de desarrollar la habilidad de abstraer y representar en un modelo problemas o soluciones. Esta habilidad es especialmente importante en el mundo del software donde las tecnologías son tan cambiantes. Un modelo te provee una forma de comunicar y validar un entendimiento, independiente de la tecnología en la que construirás una solución.

Al finalizar el curso, los estudiantes estarán en condiciones de comunicar sus diseños a otros miembros de un equipo de desarrollo o a otros equipos de desarrollo.

What You Will Learn

  • Identificar los objetivos del modelado durante el proceso de desarrollo de software.
  • Comprender diagramas de clases UML que contengan clases, asociaciones simples y de agregación, relaciones de herencia y de dependencia.
  • Construir diagramas de clases UML que contengan clases, asociaciones simples y de agregación, relaciones de herencia y de dependencia.
  • Interpretar un enunciado dentro del contexto de programación orientada a objetos con el fin de construir su correspondiente diagrama de clase.

Syllabus

WEEK 1
Módulo 0
Este es el módulo inicial del curso, en donde les damos la bienvenida y explicamos la estructura y los temas que abordaremos en todos los módulos.
Modelado e introducción a diagramas de clases
Con este módulo comenzaremos nuestro curso. En primer lugar, presentaremos los conceptos de modelar, abstraer y representar, y luego exploraremos la historia de UML. Finalmente revisaremos la sintáxis básica de diagramas de clase, incluyendo clases, atributos y métodos y haremos varios ejercicios de lectura y construcción de diagramas UML con estos elementos.

WEEK 2
Asociaciones y herencias
En el anterior módulo aprendimos qué es el modelado y cómo crear clases con atributos y métodos en UML. En este módulo entenderemos qué es una asociación y aprenderemos a crear asociaciones entre clases. También estudiaremos las relaciones de herencia, exploraremos sus características, sus propiedades y el uso apropiado de estas.

WEEK 3
Composición, agregación y dependencia
En el módulo anterior aprendimos sobre las asociaciones simples entre clases. En este módulo iremos un paso más allá y estudiaremos las asociaciones de agregación: asociaciones compuestas y compartidas. También exploraremos un nuevo tipo de relaciones entre clases y sus usos: Las relaciones de dependencia.

WEEK 4
Lectura de modelos más complejos y construcción de caso real
Tras todo el recorrido que hemos hecho a través de los diferentes conceptos de los diagramas de clases en UML, en este módulo practicaremos lo que hemos visto hasta el momento. Pondremos en práctica los diferentes elementos, asociaciones y relaciones para modelar una realidad a partir de enunciados más grandes y complejos.

Problem Solving Using Computational Thinking (Coursera)

Have you ever heard that computers "think"? Believe it or not, computers really do not think. Instead, they do exactly what we tell them to do. Programming is, "telling the computer what to do and how to do it." Before you can think about programming a computer, you need to work out exactly what it is you want to tell the computer to do. Thinking through problems this way is Computational Thinking. Computational Thinking allows us to take complex problems, understand what the problem is, and develop solutions. We can present these solutions in a way that both computers and people can understand.
