Make sure you talk about it being Object Oriented -> Applets and Applications, stay on general stuff unless its a programming class you are giving the presentation in.

erm.. you should actually learn the language first.. it's hard to give a presentation on something you don't know much about

talk about Object Orientation and use java as an example, you should also explore smalltalk, as it's one of the earliest and purest example of Object oriented language.. you can try compare and contrast the two..

talk about it's adventages.. such as it's huge library of useful functions, and it's relative complete swing package get some background on C++, so you know what java is designed to improve

disadventages: it's verbose syntax (there are people who love it, but most people are lazy ), research a bit on ruby/python/lisp, you'll understand alot of it's disadventage..

yea im ina programming class...i kno QBasic and Visual Basic...kinda understand it from some google site i found

[furtivefelon]

by understanding i mean actually program in it.. QBasic/Visual Basic, they are.. well, very basic they are way too simple in comparision to Java, or any other better general purpose languages..
