If you are new to Java, how well has the course helped
your understanding? For purposes of this question,
consider how prepared you are to code the sample
program listed on the GSAMS-Java web page.
Please select one of the following . . .
I already knew Java before the course.
Time permitting, I'm prepared to code a basic console-based programs.
I'm still uncertain on some points, but could code simple programs.
I'm still uncertain on some points; labs and homework would help.
I don't know. I followed the slides, but would have to write a program to see.
I'm not sure I could complete the assignment; I've only seen a few lectures.
No thanks; I'll pass. I'd like to study Java some more before coding.

If you think additional materials would help with this course,
select the resources you might use from the following list:
Thanks; I'm content with what's been offered.
I might like to deliver one (or more) of the GSAMS-Java lectures myself.
I would make use of a newsgroup devoted to this class.
I would like assigned homeworks and labs.
It would be helpful to have a teaching assistant to help with homeworks/lab.
A text book or printed/electronic collection of notes would help.
I would like more coded examples--small "how to" demonstrations.
An on-line course interface (for getting/turning in homework) would help.

We plan on covering the basics of JDK 1.2's Swing package.
Since there's not enough time to cover everything in the
package, would you like to see certain aspects of Swing
covered in greater detail??
Swing? I didn't sign up for dance lessons.
I have no preference.
Please emphasize top-level containers (JFrame, JApplets, JPanels).
Please emphasize atomic components (e.g., JSlider, JButtons).
Please emphasize complex components (e.g., JTable, JTree).
Please emphasize complex Swing events (e.g., ChangePropertyEvents, VetoableEvents).
Please emphasize Swing layout (e.g., Boxes, glue, struts, cards).
My preference is not listed; please see comments below.
