Syllabus

Foundations of .NET Development and Visual Studio Code Integration

In this module, you will learn the fundamentals of the .NET environment and its purpose in software development. You’ll explore how Visual Studio Code integrates with .NET projects and gain hands-on experience setting up a .NET development environment. By the end, you’ll understand the steps for starting a new .NET project and how to organize project files and structure within the .NET framework.

Applying Programming Foundations

In this module, you will review key programming concepts from the first course, such as variables, data types, control structures, loops, methods, and pseudocode. You’ll apply logical thinking alongside these programming fundamentals and practice using basic debugging techniques and tools. By the end, you'll write simple programs in C# and create a small project that incorporates the review topics and debugging skills.

Mastering Object-Oriented Programming in C#

In this module, you will dive into the core concepts of object-oriented programming (OOP) in C#, including defining objects and classes. You'll explore inheritance and polymorphism, learning how to apply them in C#. Additionally, you will identify common OOP design patterns and implement classes and objects through practical exercises, solidifying your understanding of these essential programming principles.

Asynchronous Programming in C#

In this module, you will learn the fundamental concepts of asynchronous programming and understand its importance in modern applications. You'll implement async and await in C# programs and develop practical solutions using asynchronous techniques. By the end, you’ll be able to debug asynchronous code and create simple asynchronous programs, enhancing the performance of your applications.

Leveraging Microsoft Copilot for Efficient C# Coding and Debugging

In this module, you will explore the features of Microsoft Copilot for writing and debugging C# code. You’ll learn how to use Copilot to write efficient code, debug errors, and improve overall code quality. Through practical exercises, you’ll leverage Copilot to solve coding challenges, making your coding process faster and more efficient.
