Teaching Visual Basic after C++/JavaPage 1Teaching Visual Basic after C++/JavaDr. Qi YangDepartment of Computer Science and Software EngineeringUniversity of Wisconsin at PlattevilleEmail: YangQ@uwplatt.eduAbstractC++ is used in our CS1 course to teach the basic concepts in procedural programming and Java is used in our CS2 course to teach data structure and object oriented programming concepts. We also offer two programming courses on Visual Basic. The first VB course requires the CS1 course and focuses on GUI programming and the second VB course requires the CS2 course and covers advanced VB topics.In both VB courses written tests are replaced by handson tests that are carried out in lab. The students have open access to all resources they want to use but they are required to create VB programs individually.Page 2Teaching Programming ConceptsOur department offers two majors: Computer Science and Software Engineering. Thecomputer Science major has two emphasizes: Computer Information Systems andComputer Technology. Both majors require two programming courses: Programming in C++ (CS1) and Object Oriented Programming and Data Structures I (CS2). C++ is used in our CS1 course to teach the basic concepts in procedural programming: if statementwhile and for loops arrays functions and parameters structures and array of structures. Java is used in our CS2 course to teach data structure and object oriented programming concepts. The Software Engineering major and the Computer Technology emphasis also require another course: Object Oriented Programming and Data Structures II (which iselective for Computer Information Systems).We also offer two programming courses on Visual Basic. VB is a very popular andpowerful programming language especially for business applications. We think that it is important for CIS students to master the language. We started to offer the first VBprogramming course in Fall 1997. Then we realized one course was not enough to cov ...
