3.00 Credits
3 credit hours Students will continue learning medical transcription skills. Students will practice physician dictation by becoming familiar with basic medical reports, and will use the appropriate format for transcribing reports. Students will continue learning related medical terminology, their roots, and abbreviations. Students will continue learning specialized rules of grammar and punctuation peculiar to dictated medical reports. Students will be exposed to many dictating variables in style and punctuation as well as genuine distractions of hospital noises and voices. Students will prepare for a job search by preparing a resume, cover letter and follow-up letter. (Prerequisite: BUS 231).
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits Students will learn to accurately process health insurance claims by understanding all aspects of medical insurance, including plan options, carrier requirements, state and federal regulations, abstracting relevant information from source documents, accurately completing claim forms, and coding diagnosis and procedures. (Pre-requisite: BUS 123).
-
3.00 Credits
3 credit hours Students will continue learning billing and coding by using concepts and procedures to logically and accurately code using CPT, ICD-9-CM, and HCPCS Level II reference manuals for diagnosis and procedure codes for physicians' offices and hospitals. Students will expand their vocabulary and increase their coding skills for the physician's office. (Prerequisite: BUS 236).
-
2.00 Credits
2 credit hours Students will demonstrate skills at the introductory and intermediate levels by producing documents using Windows XP and Office 2003, 2007, or XP, which contains Microsoft Word, Microsoft Power- Point, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Access, and integrating these application software programs. No prerequisites required.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Students will establish a foundation for programming with Visual Basic by deriving the physical design, establishing development environments, and creating user services for Visual Basic applications. Students use real-world examples to solve programming problems using foundational classes, methods, inheritance, structures, controls, & code. Visual Studio 2005 will be the current software used. The course will build upon the structures and design principals developed in CPD 122. This is the prerequisite course for CPD 228. (Pre-requisite: CPD122). .
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Students will assess, develop and utilize computer programming to construct World Wide Web sites using Adobe Dreamweaver (CS3) which is an integrated Web development environment that helps create integrated and interactive web sites. Topics that will be analyzed and developed include Website Design Principals, Web Browsers, Uniform Resource Locators, HTTP protocol, FTP, XHTML, FLASH, FIREWORKS and Stylesheets. As web content has evolved, more advanced sites incorporate graphics, animation, forms, layers and JavaScript to make these elements active. Dreamweaver generates JavaScript and allows developers to make web sites more visually and textually interactive. Students will also operate and advance their skills in the use of scanners, digital cameras and video clips. (Prerequisite: CPD 123).
-
3.00 Credits
3 credit hours Within the CPD 121 course, students will establish a foundation for understanding what is involved in writing programs for the gaming industry. This course will focus on brainstorming ideas, interactive story telling, level design, licensing, development team dynamics, game ethics, game economics, game esthetics, contracts and legal issues, power violence addiction, psychology of playing, intellectual property laws, artificial intelligence and the history of games. In this course students will also discover how games are marketed, going from when the idea is born from the designer to testers and producers, to programmers, artists, marketers, distributor agents, and executives, to the day a consumer can purchase it in the stores. Students will also evaluate different types of game development software. No prerequisites required.

4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Within CPD 122, students will utilize introductory structured programming logic using Alice, a 3D animation software to begin building structures, functions, methods, and classes. This non-language specific course will stress 3D graphics and flowcharting and pseudocoding as the means of problem solving basic programming problems and as a means of designing basic structured programs. This course is the foundation for all the language courses and students build a beginning knowledge of programming structures, processes, and tools. Storyboarding is used to design programs along with highlevel concepts such as reifying objects(treating an abstract concept as if it were a real), the Alice system utilizes a drag and drop system to place components on the screen and allow the students to learn the structures of programming without syntax errors. The Alice system uses 3D graphical, object-oriented objects such as animals, humans, cars, toys, etc to create programs. The user then animates these objects by using method calls such as "move forward 3 meters" or "turn left a half turn". Each program istory-based and compels the students to use their creativity. This program, which focuses directly on students who were raised on video games and PIXAR films, was pioneered by the Carnegie Mellon University and the National Science Foundation. (Prerequisites: CPD 119, CPD 228, CPD 222, and CPD 229).
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Students will assess, develop and utilize computer programming to construct World Wide Web pages using the XHTML language which is a stricter version of HTML. This XHTML is created and designed to address many of the problems associated with the different and competing versions of HTML and to integrate much better with HTML and XML. Students will advance their skills in developing Internet communications using a Windows-based text editor. Topics that will be analyzed and developed include Web Browsers, Uniform Resource Locators, HTTP protocol, FTP, and SQL servers. Students will also operate and advance their skills in the use of scanners, digital cameras and video clips. (Pre-requisite: CPD1 20).
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours The student will apply principles of database design and management to the selection of appropriate relational database systems. Students will demonstrate skills at the introductory and intermediate & advanced levels by producing documents using Windows XP and Microsoft Access 2003. Within Access, students will create and maintain database tables, define table relationships, create running and saving queries, sort and filter records, create and customize forms and reports, publish Access objects to the World Wide Web, replicate a database, create and run macros, create a switchboard, work with database security and write Visual Basic code. Students will identify different models of database design. Students will use their knowledge of objectoriented, distributed, and client/server systems, as well as data warehousing, QBE, and SQL, to identify and analyze database design needs and internet and intranet implications for database management. This course is designed to prepare students for the Microsoft Office Specialist Certification (MOSC) certification exams. The MOSC Program Certification exams help students demonstrate their proficiencies to prospective employers and give them a competitive edge in the job marketplace. (Pre-requisite: CPD 226).
