Title: Module Introduction-16
Course: COP 1510 Programming Concepts > Section: Module 15 - GUI Applications

Introduction

Module 15 shows us how to develop programs using Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs). Almost all modern day programs are developed with a GUI, so this is an important skill you will continue to use in the future. With GUIs, we need to give more consideration to the design of the interface and how everything will be laid out on the screen. You all have probably had an experience where you used a GUI program that was poorly designed or not easy to use. Keep this in mind as you begin to design your own graphical programs.

Objectives

Upon completion of this module, the student will be able to:
- Compare and contrast programming languages and choose a language for a programming task.
