Abstract

Undergraduate courses on object-oriented technology at Universidad Nacional de La Plata place special emphasis on design. By concentrating on design we ensure that students ending these courses are object-oriented modelers more than programmers. Programming activities also have an important role: to give students hands-on experience. After five semesters of instruction in object-oriented technology students are ready for development positions in industry. Although this approach is effective in university it does not work well in industry.
