e-Tour Course

About the Course
This course is for anyone interested in the discipline of on-line course for those managing on-line design and delivery. Teachers, lecturers, trainees, materials developers, academic or technical managers, Chief Technical Officer information Officer can all benefit from the course.

Benefits of the Course
Upon completion of the course, you will gain invaluable skills and experience including the ability to:

You will also experience what it is like to be an on-line learner and to be taught by an on-line tutor, essential if you are to teach on-line in the future.

Methodology and Approach
e-Tutor involves 7 hours of on-line learning coupled with independent assignments such as short projects and 3 days of instructor-lead sessions.

Using a blended learning approach, all course activities, tutor support, peer interaction and assessment take place both on-line as well as during the instructor-led sessions.

Each learner is allocated to a cohort of 15-20 learners with a single tutor throughout the course. Learners progressed by reading the internet-based course materials, completing individual activities and projects, and attending the instructor-lead sessions.

The differential factors in the Course

E-tutor is taught, managed and maintained by an expert multidisciplinary team.

We do not see on-line learning as a technical discipline. Instead, we concentrate on developing the communication, methodology and information handling capabilities that all on-line tutors need, and we believe the best way to do it is through collaborative activity and blended learning.

We are committed in making this course successful by virtues of the following:

Java

Java Programming for Beginners
First time programmers will find this course an excellent choice for learning programming using the Java Programming language. This course helps delegates understand the significance of the Java programming language. With this knowledge, delegates can develop skills in the areas of object-oriented programming. By the end of class, delegates will be able to program simple Java applets and read and edit Java technology source code.

Java Programming for Advanced Users
This course provides programmers who are familiar with C or C++ to learn how to develop Java applications and applets. What this course can provide is an exhaustive coverage of the Java language and Core Classes from the Java Development Kit (JDK), with a variety of practical exercises to reinforce the use of the object-oriented approach. The course teaches students the syntax of the JavaTM language, object-oriented programming in Java, creating graphical user interfaces, as well as using the Java event model to handle events and catch exceptions. Gain practical experience through out all the major aspects of the design and development of Java programs. You will also learn file input/output (I/O), threads and networking in Java. The exercises are designed to encourage the use of object-orientation to develop reusable components as well as demonstrate the effective partitioning of larger systems. Upon completion of the course, participants will have both the theoretical knowledge and practical experience to use Java to design quality software systems.

Java Programming for Developers
This course provides programmers who are familiar with C or C++ to learn how to develop Java applications using JDBC and RMI. What this course can provide is an exhaustive coverage of the distributed computing using Java RMI and CORBA, with a variety of practical exercises to reinforce the use of the object-oriented approach. The course also teaches students the syntax of the Bean programming in Java, creating Bean Model, as well as using the Java event model to handle events and catch exceptions. Gain practical experience through out all the major aspects of the design and development of Bean programs. You will also learn Server side programming Servlets. The exercises are designed to encourage the use of object-orientation to develop reusable components as well as demonstrate the effective deployment of Web Applications in Servlets. Upon completion of the course, participants will have both the theoretical knowledge and practical experience to use Java to design quality software systems.

Enterprise JavaBeans
The Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition, or J2EE, defines a set of components and builds a service-oriented infrastructure into the platform to automatically support and manage components. These specifications are Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs). Participants will learn how to create J2EE compliant EJBs and how to combine them into robust enterprise applications. Also covers these essential topics: Session and Entity Beans, the Container framework in which EJBs function, transaction and security management features. Participants will use the standard J2EE Reference Implementation server in lab exercises. This course also deals with Exception handling by Bean and Security issues.

Java 2 Mobile Edition (J2ME)
Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition (J2ME) aims to adapt Java for the wide spectrum of consumer products ranging from small devices such as palm pilots, mobile phones, to home appliances such as TV, refrigerator, etc. Although J2ME is still using the same Java language as the other editions, it has to reduce the size of the Java runtime environment in order to run in devices that have various memory and power constraints. It achieves this by removing unnecessary classes from the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition and augmenting it with new classes that are suitable for small devices.

 

RosettaNet

This courses looks at RosettaNet standard from the technical and business perspective. RosettaNet is a "global business consortium creating the electronic commerce framework to align processes in the IT supply chain. The important aspect in the eBusiness is the 'dictionaries,' the 'framework,' the 'Partner Interface Processes - PIPs' and the 'eBusiness processes which is what RosettaNet brings to the eBusiness applications. RosettaNet fills this existing gap by focusing on building a master dictionary to define properties for products, partners, and business transactions. This master dictionary, coupled with an established implementation framework (exchange protocols), is used to support the eBusiness dialog known as the Partner Interface Process or PIP. A RosettaNet PIP is an XML specification designed to align a specific business process between supply chain partners. RosettaNet PIPs create new areas of alignment within the overall IT supply-chain eBusiness processes, allowing IT supply-chain partners to scale eBusiness, and to fully leverage Ecom applications and the Internet as a business-to-business commerce tool.

 

WebServices Application Development

WebServices Application Development course is an intensive 5 days course with hands on creating the Webservices model. This course also covers business Scenarios and sample application to enforce the concept. Course covers SOAP Messaging and SOAP Extension, it also covers the WSDL documents, UDDI registry. The implementation will be shown using Java Technologies.

 

XML

XML the Extensible Markup Language has revolutionized the web processing market and the W3C XML DOM is potentially one of the most important standards since the XML specification gives implementers a common vocabulary to use in manipulating the XML document. It is widely adopted by most of the main software vendors and with this; the increase in importance of know-how to use XML within the development environment has become shallow. XML has become an essential tool in an application developer’s toolbox, which allows easy interchange of pure data between disparate systems across the Internet. In the course, individuals will be given an extensive experience transforming and styling XML data and the skills of exploiting XSL components to manipulate and analyze XML data will be impartial. This 4-day course is designed for all levels of IT professionals who have to develop XML documents and XML document definitions. The course is furnished with a series of exercises, which are intended to instill a deeper level of understanding. There will be opportunities to study examples of transformation files and how it might be used. Individuals will acquire skills in the need for XML, XMI Technologies, DTD/XML Schema, XML Namespace, XSL, XSLT, using servlets to create XML and using ASP to create XMLS, CDF and soap concept.
