Discussion boards are collaborative learning experiences. Therefore, the student is required to create a thread in response to the provided prompt for each forum.

The student will complete 7 Lab assignments. Each assignment will consist of a variable number of questions that are focused on applying concepts from the textbook readings. Each Lab assignment must be typed into a Word document, include screenshots, and be submitted using the link provided in the respective module/week’s Assignments folder.

The student will write a 2,000-word research-based paper in current APA format that focuses on a database topic of his/her choosing. The topic chosen must be approved by the instructor. The Research Paper will be completed in 3 parts: Topic Approval, References Page and Sentence Outline, and Final Draft. The paper must include at least 7 references, 1 of which may be the textbook and another of which may be the Bible. All other references must be from peer-reviewed sources.

The student will design and create a database project to meet a real-life need. The project will be submitted in 2 separate phases: a design and development phase with ER Diagram and tables and a data analysis phase with advanced data mining queries. Screenshots must be included in both phases of this project.

Each exam will address the Reading & Study material for the modules/weeks that have been covered to date.
