    • design object-oriented applications by applying the methods learned
    • choose appropriate methods for given tasks
    • Reproduce the contents of software engineering and programming cases
    • describe various problems and the appropriate solutions as encountered in the cases
    • explain the differences and similarities of various methods of software engineering by means of case studies

    • explain the differences and similarities of various data and control structures of programming
    • Solve case studies with the help of the learned concepts and methods
    • Apply IDE and CASE tools
    • analyze complex issues and identify appropriate concepts and methods for their solution
    • Create simple object-oriented programs (e.g., in the learning environments Scratch or Greenfoot)

    • distribute tasks in teams
    • assign task according to skills of team members
    • justify solutions in front of team members and teachers
    • tolerate the opinions of other students, even if they contradict one's own understanding (e.g., in case study discussion or discussion forums)
    • independently and reliably repeat the contents of the lecture (esp., exercises and case studies)
    • assess their progress and their involvement in the lectures, the exercises and in self-study (e.g., participation in classroom discussions, success in solving the exercises)
    • identify their strengths and weaknesses and adjust their commitment accordingly (e.g., repetition of the lecture)
