1. You will have two classes with main methods each and one class MyClassToBePersisted. 2. You run the serialize class to make a file project.ser 3. You run the deserialize to read the file data.
re: Step 1. Profile and School. Yes but ArrayLists and String classes that are encapsulated in the MyClassToBePersisted. re: Step 2. Properties, Fields, Attributes, They are all just about the same meaning here. You need data so you set your data up in fields/ properties of the class to be persisted. When you get to databases programming you will understand what a persistence unit or class or bean is. It is just a getter, setter class that has the names of the variables you want to get data from. They are just variables here that are pre-named or hard coded. Yes the one static final long is serialVersionUID or the version control Id you mentioned in 2. Just try to understand the program you are basing this one on SerializeTime. You can ask more questions about it because it's done. Your homework is another mater.
