What does the Visual Basic course cover?
The manual that is issued as part of all our Visual Basic courses is highly simplified. A text is also recommended which serves as a chapter-by-chapter review. For each 2.5 session, a student would be expected to practise for the same amount of time ie to completely review the previous lesson. Each student of course has access to his or her own computer in class. Ideally a student would also have his or her own computer at home. The Visual Basic practise facilities are available on other evenings (not Fridays), afternoons and some weekends. We not only allow such practice but positively encourage it and maybe even insist! At the completion of your Visual Basic course, subject to satisfactory performance, a Kensington College Visual Basic Certificate is awarded. Topics covered on this course are: • Writing a Simple Program • Properties and Controls • Conditional and Looping Statements • Mouse Events • Making your own Menus • Dialog Boxes • Graphic Controls • Graphics Methods • The Grid
