Assignment Description

The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion.

At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. Two additional responses are required after Friday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.

The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.

  • Based on your knowledge, experience, and ideas, select one object-oriented programming (OOP) language and one tool or IDE that can be used with that language. Your selection must not be either Java or C#. Then, in 4-6 paragraphs, address ALL of the following questions:
    • What are the key benefits of the language?
    • What are the main features of the language?
    • How does the syntax of this language differ from Java? Is it like any other languages?
    • What types of software is the language best used to create?
    • Can this language be used to write software for smartphones? If so, in your judgment, is that a good idea? Why or why not?
    • Describe several steps you would take to use the tool you selected for this language. Explain what this would accomplish.
  • Include at least one reference in addition to the textbook.
