Learning Java	ACM Java Task Force: [ http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~eroberts//jtf/index.html ] JTF Charter: To review the Java language, APIs, and tools from the perspective of introductory computing education and to develop a stable collection of pedagogical resources that will make it easier to teach Java to first-year computing students without having those students overwhelmed by its complexity. Course materials, outlines, and resources for an introductory programming course offered at Rochester Institute of Technology that focuses on games as a way to learn programming: http://www.cs.rit.edu/~cs1/ Has some great resources.

Remote Logins and File Transfers:

You will ultimately have to have some way of getting files from one computer to another, so some sort of file transfer will be necessary. Many people find it the least trouble to move the files you need, do your work, and then move the files when you are done. When I'm at home working on webpages or whatever, I just leave a file transfer window open, and move files back and forth as necessary. I do the actual work on whatever machine I'm sitting at.
You will need a remote dial-up/connection utility. Some choices:
SSH: free (for students) http://www.ucalgary.ca/it/self_help/ssh/win/
OpenSSH: free http://www.openssh.com/
Putty: free http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
If you have Internet, then you simply launch the program and connect. If you don't have a 'direct' connection you will have to dial-up (let me know if you need phone numbers, the process is a little bit different)
There are usually two ways to 'connect':
1. to do file transfers
2. to get a shell window (remote login)
You will need to know a host address:
