If you are installing libre office on a Mac, and it gives you an error asking for a JRE, download the file at this link.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
- These tutorial videos were created using LibreOffice 5. The most current version of LibreOffice is 6. After checking the change-log and reproducing this project in the current version of the program, these tutorials represent the same process. The changes to base appear to mainly be about background database functions which we don't interact with in this class.
- In my experience, the JavaScript issue was eliminated with the new version.
Introduction to Databases
- Using Google Forms, or another similar platform like Survey Monkey or Simply Surveys for building a basic survey, create a brief three questionnaire to find out something interesting about your classmates. Submit the link to the survey and a description on Moodle, and put the link and a short invitation to take your survey into the proper Slack Channel so that your classmates can submit the questionnaire.
- Please also look at your classmates surveys and submit your own answers. Think about have you found out about the class; next week we will discuss the results. Please remember to keep your questions polite and sensitive to a diverse population. It should not be invasively or overly personal and should respect your respondents’ privacy. Think critically if you need to ask a question that identifies your classmates individual or specific demo- or psycho-graphic groups.
