Topic outline

  • General

    Programming II will be arranged as a MOOC (Massive Online Open Course), which utilises modules 8-14 of the Java programming course provided by the University of Helsinki (the course was recently updated in 2020 for improved user experience). An aalto-specific 2021 course link to the MOOC is now provided at https://tmc.mooc.fi/org/aalto-biz/Follow carefully the step-by-step installation instructions given in the instruction slides (see below). 

    • The last final exam is on 4.2 at 14:00 and it will be available from this course home page as an online exam. You need to enrol to the exam through Sisu.
    • The exercises should be completed by December 13, the night before the first exam, which is arranged by Aalto on December 14. Thus, there is a single deadline for all exercises, and 80% of each 7 exercise modules should be completed in order to proceed to the next one. You should reserve plenty of time for conducting the coding exercises (do them weekly), as they take time to complete. The weight of the final exam is 50% of the grade.
