Applying a UML Model to a Program Implementation: UML in Practice

Unit 4

This Unit provides further practices about UML models, especially the activity and class diagrams.
The class diagram represents the objects used in the software and their relationship. In addition, the activity diagram shows the system activities and their relationship over time by describing them as a flowchart.

Outcomes

  • Summary of the learning outcomes

This unit aims to:

  • Prepare a class diagram which corresponds to a system which will be implemented
  • Take a UML model and implement software using it
  • Reflection

What exactly have I learnt and how?

"Learning by doing!" Theory alone can not be enough to understand the diagrams in detail. However, the exercises again confirmed that practice gives me the most learning outcome than only the theory. Now, I can utilize the class and activity diagram.
