Rationale of the Course:

This course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of
object-oriented programming (OOP) principles using the Python programming
language. Students will explore the fundamental concepts of OOP, including
classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation. Through hands-on
exercises and projects, participants will apply these concepts to design robust and
scalable software solutions.

Course Objectives: Students will be able to:

●​ Core Concepts of OOP: Understand the fundamental principles of
object-oriented programming, including classes, objects, inheritance,
polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction.
 ●​ Design and Implementation: Develop object-oriented solutions for
computational problems, including creating and managing classes, objects,
constructors, destructors, and understanding object lifecycles.
●​ Code Reusability and Modularity: Apply inheritance for code reuse,
polymorphism for flexibility, encapsulation to safeguard data integrity, and
abstraction to simplify complex systems.
●​ Error Handling: Incorporate robust error handling and exception
management into object-oriented programs to enhance reliability and
functionality.

Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) and mapping of CLOs with Program

Learning Outcomes (PLOs):
1.​

CLO1 Understand the core principles of object-oriented programming.

Students will grasp the fundamental concepts of object-oriented programming,
including encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism.
CLO2 Implement object-oriented solutions using programming languages.
Learners will gain proficiency in implementing object-oriented solutions using
programming languages such as Java, C++, or Python. They will develop the
ability to create classes, define objects, and apply object-oriented design patterns to
build modular and maintainable software systems.

CLO3 Apply inheritance and polymorphism for code reuse and extensibility.
Learners will explore the concepts of inheritance and polymorphism and their
applications in code reuse and extensibility. They will understand how to create
derived classes that inherit properties and behaviors from base classes and leverage
polymorphism to write flexible and modular code.

CLO4 Communicate effectively in object-oriented programming projects. Students will

enhance their collaboration and communication skills through participation in
object-oriented programming projects. They will work effectively in teams,
contribute to codebases, and effectively communicate their ideas and solutions
using object-oriented programming concepts and terminology.

Plagiarism and Academic Integrity:
Honesty is an intrinsic value that plays an integral role in developing the character
of a person. It is something that needs to be inculcated in a person from a very
early age, nurtured and reinforced by the environment in which he or she grows in
such a manner, that it permeates into and pervades the entire system, be it
academics or otherwise. Academic honesty cannot be a mutually exclusive term;
rather, it is an extension of the broader value system that enables a student to be
ethical, honest and accountable for her work. The integrity of students’ academic
work is very important to ZUMS’s faculty. The academic community revolves
around innovative ideas and creativity and we believe that person’s ideas are his or
her contribution to the academic community. Therefore, taking another person’s
ideas and representing them as one’s own is a serious form of dishonesty. Similarly,
cheating (copying someone else’s work, asking for answers, sharing answers, etc.)
and other forms of dishonesty (falsifying data, making up references, etc.) are also
serious breaches of this honor code. The following are considered to be academic
dishonesty at ZUMS:
● ​ Plagiarism: Passing off the ideas or work of another person as one’s
own (one may be using another person’s writing/ideas/ project/ survey
report, claiming it to be original work or using the ‘cut-copy-paste’ method
to download information and then incorporating the same in one’s own work
without proper, clear and explicit acknowledgment of the source.
● ​ Collusion: Allowing one’s work to be copied or submitted for
assessment by another
● ​ Duplication of work: Presenting the same work for different
assessment components.
● ​ Falsifying data/documents- Creating data that is not backed by true
research or participation
● ​ Copying, asking for answers, sharing answers, and any other form of
cheating (misrepresenting your own work and knowledge) on exams or
quizzes are all forms of academic dishonesty.

Other Forms of Academic Dishonesty

1.​ Making up references, quoting wrong sources, etc.
2.​ Falsifying data.
3.​ Misrepresenting your situation to be excused from academic work.
 4.​ Submitting the same paper in more than one class.
5.​ Informing a student in a later class about questions on tests or quizzes.
6.​ Misrepresenting your academic work or qualifications in any way.
