Abstract :
Object-oriented programming is difficult for novice not only for the abstract concepts but also for the construction application using object-oriented knowledge. As a result, some students might lose confidence and interests bit by bit just in a few weeks´ study. To avoiding this, we implement a learning cycle mode program in object-oriented programming course to activate novice´s learning and motivate their inquiry quality by some carefully conceived material. On the analysis of the LCM teaching and the features of object-oriented programming learning, this paper introduces a three-segment LCM teaching in detail including request inquiry, knowledge module inquiry and object-oriented application. Specifically, this paper presents a sample material on which the LCM program is implemented. Additionally, the project-based evaluation is proposed on LCM teaching implementation.
