Course Description

This course takes Java beginners to the next level by covering object-oriented analysis and design. You will discover how to create modular, flexible, and reusable software, by applying object-oriented design principles and guidelines. And, you will be able to communicate these designs in a visual notation known as Unified Modelling Language (UML).You will be challenged in the Capstone Project to apply your knowledge of object-oriented design by evolving and documenting the Java codebase for an Android application with corresponding UML documentation.After completing this course, you will be able to: - Apply the Class Responsibility Collaborator (CRC) technique to analyze and design the object-oriented model for a problem.- Explain and apply object-oriented modeling principles and their purpose (e.g., abstraction, encapsulation, decomposition, generalization).- Explain and apply different types of inheritance- Explain the difference between association, aggregation, and composition dependencies.- Express object-oriented models as Unified Modeling Language (UML) class diagrams.- Translate between UML class diagrams and equivalent Java code.- Apply design guidelines for modularity, separation of concerns, information hiding, and conceptual integrity to create a flexible, reusable, maintainable design.- Explain the tradeoff between cohesion and coupling.

Very good course, provides you all what is needed to understand different UML diagrams, modelling and Design Principles.

The code in this course isn't maintained. You have to install old Android Studio in order to make things to work. Also, it is always a problem to get your assignments reviewed, you have to beg other classmates to do so. But I enjoyed a theoretical part and the quizzes. The part about Model Checking was not explained (except of the high theoretical words), even after watching the lecture about it I'm still a bit confused.Not bad course as a part of the specialization.
