Tutorial Title:
Using the ACM Java Libraries
Person:
Prof. Eric Roberts (Stanford University)
Duration:
10:00 am - 2:00 pm
Date:
Saturday 1 December 2007
Abstract:
The ACM Java Task Force (JTF) was created in 2004 and charged with developing resources to simplify the use of Java in introductory courses. The Task Force released Version 1.0 of the ACM Java Libraries in August 2006, with Version 1.1 following in September 2007. These materials are freely downloadable from http://jtf.acm.org. This workshop is designed to give instructors hands-on experience using the JTF packages so that they are prepared to adopt it in their introductory-level courses. The workshop will follow the structure of the online JTF tutorial and will focus on creating dynamic, interactive programs using the acm.graphics and acm.gui packages.
