[Year 12 SofDev] choosing a language for 2008

[Andrew Grimshaw]

HI every1

as a new teacher of SofDev i am hoping to get some advice about which language to use next year

the students have used visual basic this year in Unit 1 and 2

i have basically narrowed it down to a choice between:

visual basic, C++  and J# 

what languages do u all use?

i am also hoping people can recommend some good source books for me to use to get myself up to scratch also - i have not used C since uni and have never used Java

thx
