<p>I added the baseline of the class outline and some advice.</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>==Class Description==<br /> CSSE 374 will teach students how to create and use design patterns, mainly in UML, to design a flexible, maintainable, and functional system. The class contains 2 exams and a final project, with an optional final exam. Homework is completed on a weekly basis and consists of creating a internal system design in UML based on various use cases and system descriptions; the amount of information varies. In addition, every week there is a Concept Check, excluding the first week, exam weeks, and project weeks; for a total of 6. Concept checks must all be passed to pass the class, there are unlimited re-tries for each one. There is a final project in which students must design and implement some 3rd party library into a given prompt for a system. There is required reading that is quizzed on each day there is a class. <br /> {|<br /> |Reading<br /> |Required<br /> |-<br /> |Homework<br /> |Weekly<br /> |-<br /> |Exams<br /> |2<br /> |-<br /> |Final Exam<br /> |Optional<br /> |-<br /> |Final Project<br /> |Yes<br /> |-<br /> |Flipped Classroom<br /> |No<br /> |}<br /> ==Advice for Students Taking CSSE 374==<br /> ===Final Project===<br /> The project lasts from 8th week to the end of 10th week. As of Winter 2023-2024, students are required to integrate a 3rd party ASM library into a student developed system that takes in Java Class files and checks them against design patterns and design principles. Students are required to create a UML design and then develop and optimize the system using the patterns learned in the class.<br /> <br /> Students are required to achieve a C on the project to pass the class.<br /> ===Testing===<br /> Students are required to earn an average of a C on both exams. The optional final exam can help improve average scores, in some cases professors have allowed students to completely replace their Exam 2 with the final exam; not entirely sure if guaranteed.</div>
