| Course Objectives | The objective of this course is to teach the students the art of user interface design and visual programming by using an industry standard RAD tool. It introduces students to developing applications in high productivity development environments and exemplifies the feature set and support tools of such environments by exposing the student to one exemplar in depth and then requiring them to develop a software artifact using the toolset. A particular RAD tool will be chosen by the instructor. |
