Integrating multiple database coursewares in database classes: tutorial presentation
Mário André Mayerhofer Guimarães · Journal of computing sciences in colleges · 2004
This workshop will introduce participants to a database courseware tool developed by the author (http://coffee.kennesaw.edu/) as well as other database courseware tools (such as http://www.eas.asu.edu/~winrdbi/) that are freely available on the web. The tools that will be presented have been successfully used by the author and as well as database instructors from different universities for several years. The work shop will focus on how to best incorporate the software in a classroom setting. Animations to teach the following topics will be presented: Database Design (Problem Specification to E-R Diagrams, E-R Diagrams to Tables, Normalization), Query Languages (Relational Algebra and SQL), Transaction Processing (PL/SQL, JDBC, Embedded SQL with C, Recovery, Concurrency, Triggers, Stored Procedures and Functions), and Object-Oriented DBMS. A similar workshop (but focusing exclusively on the tools developed by the PI) has been successfully presented at a Regional Conference and at an International Conference.
