10-2: Project Overview and Getting Started

Practice Solutions

Try It / Solve It

1. Decide on a topic for your group.

Solutions will vary.

2. Discuss the specific business problems that you want to solve.

Solutions will vary.

3. Start creating a first-cut ERD.

Solution:

Map your ERD to an initial database design. Complete the table instance chart for each table
mapped.

Use Oracle Application Express to:

• Create your tables
• Add sample data to created tables
• Write and save queries that will be needed for the final presentation project

Using the ERD each group has developed for its final presentation project, students should be
able to create sample tables using Oracle Application Express. Assist students with SQL syntax
as needed. Give each student printed copies of the table instance chart to help them map their
ERD.
