o MS Access is preferable to Open Office which is a viable option for those without Access

o Use your own data. Don’t look to download anything from the site.

o Make the data realistic. It does not have to be real, but don’t do things like using A, B, C, etc. for names or just whole numbers for GPA. Use 2 decimal position GPAs.

o Use enough data to test all conditions. Make sure the data proves the queries worked

o Pay attention to format, spelling, etc. on the report

Part 1:

Course Project Part 1

You are required to use OpenOffice software to build tables, write, and execute queries.

1. Build a Database named DBMS Course Project. The database should include following tables.

o First Table – Students

§ ID

§ First Name

§ Last Name

§ Address

§ City

§ State

§ Zip Code

§ Phone Number with area code

o Second Table – GPA

§ ID

§ 3 (Junior)

§ 4 (Senior)

§ 5 (Graduate Student)

o Third Table – Scholarships

§ ID

§ Major course of study

§ Academic Scholarship (Yes or No)

§ Athletic Scholarship (Yes or No)

2. Extract the First and Last Name, Address, City, State, Zip Code and Phone Number of each senior on the database. Sort by Last Name, then First Name (1 sort).

3. Extract the First and Last Name, and GPA of each student who qualifies for the Dean’s List. Sort by GPA, then Last Name, then First Name (1 sort). A GPA of 3.25 is required to make the Dean’s List.

Part 2:

Course Project Part 2

You are required to use OpenOffice software to write and execute queries with tables you created in project part 1.

1. Extract the First and Last Name, Student ID, Course Major and GPA of any students on athletic scholarship. Sort by Student ID.

edition, Coronel and Morris.  

 Chapter 1 – Database Systems
Identify some of the pitfalls of file-based storage and introduce some of the advantages gained when using a database.

Chapter 2 – Data Models
An overview of the data models and discussion of the terminology and basic structural concepts. 

Write two sections of your case study as follows: Information Systems (IS)/Information Technology (IT) Applications Implementation Recommendations (for this paper section, you will comprehensively analyze the required and the potential IS/IT applications from Case Study Waypoint #3 and prioritize one required and one potential IS/IT application and further make implementation recommendations for the selected required and the potential IS/IT applications) and Information Systems (IS)/Information Technology (IT) Applications Implementation Strategy (in this paper section you will specifically outline your implementation strategy for the selected required IS/IT application (based upon a 3 to 12 month timeline) and the selected potential IS/IT application (based upon a 6 to 24 month timeline). You will further create a Gantt chart for both the required IS/IT application and the potential IS/IT application (and place them appropriately in your Appendix section). Smartsheet (Links to an external site.) provides a free online Gantt chart tool (signing up for a free account is required – no payment information is required), or you may be interested in using Microsoft Project (Links to an external site.). Please also feel free to utilize a Gantt chart tool of your choice.
