If you google on learning java you will get over one million hits.
Obviously, there is no shortage of resources for a beginner.

Here are Java links I've found to be particularly useful.
If you find one (or some) on your own and would like to share
them with the class, just let me know and I'll post it.

Sun's Java Home
(the center of the Java universe)

Sun's Java Tutorials
Beginning Java Tutorials
(Step-by-step directions with explanations on important Java topics)

J2SE's API Specification
(a bit overwhelming, but a very important resource)

Java By Dissection by Pohl & McDowell
(the home page of the textbook for this course)

Java 2 for Beginners, by James W. Cooper
(a fairly nice overview of Java, provides nice summaries)

O'reilly Java Site
(most of the books here cover advanced topics, but not all)
