Class Objectives
/Class Outline This course systematically covers the software development process from initial development to operation and maintenance. Students will learn the fundamentals of software development processes, design methodologies, and quality assurance principles. Practical skills such as version control, CI/CD, secure coding, and team development techniques will also be covered. The ultimate goal is to develop the ability to build software with a strong focus on quality.

Suggestions on
Preparation and
Review 1st & 2nd Understand the overall software development process and compare different process models.
3rd & 4th Recognize the importance of specification design and review the basics of use case and class diagrams.
5th & 6th Consider the benefits of object-oriented design and think about appropriate applications of design patterns.
7th & 8th Organize different types of software architecture and learn criteria for selecting appropriate designs.
9th & 10th Practice Git operations and organize different types and purposes of testing.
11th & 12th Develop coding skills with a focus on maintainability and security.
13th & 14th Engage in team development while considering design, implementation, and review with quality in mind.
15th Reflect on the entire course and plan future learning strategies.

Requirements This course assumes at least a basic understanding of programming, including:
• Basic syntax of C, Java, or Python
• Variables and data types (e.g., int, float, string, list)
• Control structures (if, for, while)
• Function definitions and calls (parameters, return values)
• Basic data structures such as arrays and lists

This course will be conducted in Japanese.

Grading Method Grades will be determined based on assignments (50 points) and the final exam (50 points). A passing grade is awarded only if all the following conditions are met:
1. The assignment score is at least 25 out of 50 points.
2. The final exam score is at least 25 out of 50 points.
3. The total score (assignments + final exam) is at least 60 out of 100 points.

Failure to meet any of the above conditions will result in a failing grade. Additionally, missing any assignments may result in failure, even if the total score meets the requirements.

Practical Experience Experienced

Summary of Practical Experience and Class Contents based on it Software development

Message - It is encouraged that students actively ask questions to the teacher and assistants.
- Please bring your laptop PC.

Other The following topics will be covered in the lectures, but prior exposure will help with smoother understanding:
1. Basics of Object-Oriented Programming (Optional but Helpful)
• Concept of classes and instances
• Using class in Python/Java
• Defining and calling methods in Python/Java
2. Basics of Git (Optional but Helpful)
• Commands: git clone, git add, git commit, git push
• Experience using GitHub is beneficial

Although prior study of object-oriented programming and Git is helpful, these topics will be covered in the course, so prior knowledge is not required. However, students are expected to be familiar with basic programming syntax.

Please fill in the class improvement questionnaire which is carried out on all classes.
Instructors will reflect on your feedback and utilize the information for improving their teaching.
