Advice you should already know: Keep up with the material by reading the chapters and/or notes in advance, reviewing material and doing the coding assignments. There is no better way to learn a language than by “speaking” it. Get ideas from a college tutor or friend but NOT code. Assignments that are copied will not be credited – whether you are the copier or the coder. Homework is 15% of your grade and will obviously make a difference in your final grade.

Introduction to Java Applications and Applets Introduction to Object Oriented Programming Control Structures Methods Arrays Strings Objects and Classes
