Java Capstone Series Pt. 1 (OpenHPI)

Java Capstone Series Pt. 1 (OpenHPI)

The Java Capstone Series is a completely new course format. Fewer videos and more hands-on activities. Together, we will develop small Java projects from scratch to transform knowledge into competencies. For the first iteration we will develop a little game, e.g. Pong or BreakOut. The idea is to work on these projects in teams, but if you prefer you can also work alone. This format is completely new for us as well. We see ourselves rather as co-learners and facilitators than as teachers.

Until the course will officially start in mid-September, we have prepared a short survey consisting of basically just one question: What do you expect from this course? Topics, approaches, tools, tasks,...
We will certainly not be able to integrate the complete wish-list in this first iteration of the course, but we hope that further iterations will follow, so that we will be able to cover many of them sooner or later.
The prerequisite for this course is a basic understanding of the Java programming language concepts.
You should have successfully completed one of the Java courses on our platforms Object-Oriented Programming in Java or have a similar body of knowledge.
