Is OOP abused in universities? [closed]

Answer 1

1. OOP is not always the best approach. However it is the best approach in the majority of applications.
2. OOP is the best approach in any system that lend itself to objects and the interaction of objects. Most business applications are best implemented in an object-oriented way.
3. OOP is a bad approach for small 1 off applications where the cost of developing an framework of objects would exceed the needs of the moment.

Learning OOA, OOD & OOP skills will benefit the most programmers, so it is definately useful for Universities to teach it.
