There are two 1-hour lectures and four hours laboratory work per week. The laboratory sessions will provide students with the opportunity to work on practicing the programming material presented in lectures and any material presented during laboratory sessions. These supervised lab sessions will involve the use of appropriate programming tools and packages.
The students will be expected to participate actively in lectures and lab sessions.
Module Aim:
To have students produce Web applications using client side technologies. To introduce students to Database theory and ER modelling.
