This workshop will be led by Thomas Cooper. Thomas will walk through three examples of creating complete classes in Java: a coin flip game, a four function calculator, and a Magic 8 Ball game. For each project, teachers will use inheritance to extend the classes. These extensions are great to assign for homework after working through the base examples in class. All participants will get physical objects (coin, calculator, and Magic 8 ball) to use in their classrooms and the book Head First Java by Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates. Teachers must have some experience in Java to attend.
