JAVA HOMEWORK PROJECTS teaches Java GUI (Graphical User Interface) Swing programming concepts and provides detailed step-by-step instructions in building many fun and useful projects. To grasp the concepts presented in JAVA HOMEWORK PROJECTS, you should possess a working knowledge of programming with Java and be acquainted with using the Swing control library. Our tutorial LEARN JAVA GUI APPLICATIONS can help you gain this needed exposure.

JAVA HOMEWORK PROJECTS explains (in simple, easy-to-follow terms) how to build a Java GUI project. Students learn about project design, the Java Swing controls, many elements of the Java language, and how to distribute finished projects. The projects built include:

- Consumer Loan Assistant - Helps you see just how much those credit cards will cost you.
- Flash Card Math Quiz - Lets you practice basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division skills.
- Multiple Choice Exam - Quizzes a user on matching pairs of items, like countries/capitals, and words/meanings.
- Blackjack Card Game - Play the classic card game against the computer and learn why gambling is very risky.

JAVA HOMEWORK PROJECTS requires Microsoft Windows, macOS, or Ubuntu Linux. You will also need to download the 11th Edition of the Java Development Kit (JDK11) from Oracle's website. This tutorial also uses the 11th Edition of the Apache NetBeans IDE (Integrated Development Environment) which is available from Apache's website for building and testing Java applications.

Industry Reviews

“Java Homework Projects guides students through building some fun, practical applications, while learning programming concepts and design flow. Students can extend and customize the project to make it their own, and share with friends - a great learning motivator!” - Carly Orr, Computer Science Teacher, Vancouver BC.

"These lessons are a highly organized and well-indexed set of lessons in the Java programming language. NetBeans, a specific IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is used throughout the lessons. Lessons are written for the beginner to initiated programmer: the high school, college or university student seeking to advance their computer science repertoire on their own, or the enlightened professional who wishes to embark on Java coding for the first time. Skilled programmers and beginners alike benefit from the style of presentation. Every Computer Science teacher and self-taught learner knows what a great deal of work is required for projects to work in this manner, and with these tutorials, the work is done by an author who understands the adult need for streamlined learning. Having my own projects in one language, such as Java, I know that I could easily adapt them to other languages once I have studied the Kidware Software tutorials. I do not believe there is any other reference material out there which would cause me to make the same claim! In fact, I know there is not as I have spent over a decade looking! I thank Kidware Software and its authors for continuing to stand for what is right in the teaching methodologies which not only inspire, but propel the self-guided learner through what can be a highly intelligible landscape of opportunities.” - Alan Payne, Computer Science Teacher, T.A. Blakelock High School
