Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The principal objective consists in the learning of a first programming language, thus permitting the students to get a maturity in this subject and so to be able to program in any other imperative language. In the initial part the student must obtain a conception of the computer and from its working (Chapter 1). In the second part, it will be present the basic elements of the programming and the logical of a program, the study of the algorithms will be done by means of fluxograms (Chapter 2). The study of the C Language includes the program structure, Input – Output instructions, attribution instruction, data structures and control structures and subprograms (Chapter 3).
Evaluation is performed in two phases:
- Continuous evaluation: one practical works to perform in practical class and two tests throughout the semester;
- Final exam for admitted students.
