Instructional Online Module

I. COURSE TITLE IT 101b – Information Management and Introduction to Database

II. MODULE TITLE AND DESCRIPTION

2.1. Module #1: Introduction to Information Management

This module will let the student understand the importance of Information Management. This will focus on the relationship between data,
information, knowledge, and information systems to an organization. The process of transformation from data to information to
knowledge will also be expounded as well as the integration of information management to businesses.

2.2. Module #2: Overview of Database

The students will infer an understanding of the database and the database management system. It will outline how the database is used
in different activities, organizations, and systems and the different data models used in designing the database. Students will be able to
construct an Entity-relationship diagram using the Chen Notation and Crow’s Foot Notation. Students are also expected to examine and
evaluate the structure of a table to transform and come up with a normalized database that can minimize the redundancy of the data is
stored that can lessen the processing time and storage.

2.3. Module #3: The Use of Structured Query Language (SQL)

This module will outline the use of MySQL as the relational database management system for storing and retrieving data. To
communicate with the MySQL database, students should be able to demonstrate and execute Structured Query Language or SQL
statements using the Data Definition and Data Manipulation commands, which will be used to create the database, tables, and for
storage, processing, and retrieval of data.

2.4. Module #4: Visual Studio in Creating Applications

The students will be able to design and develop an application using Visual Studio. They will get to discover and implement the tools,
components, objects, and events in an application. Students are also expected to integrate a database using MySQL for the storing,
processing, and retrieval of data.

Activity #3:
Each student will be assigned to a different set of problems.

Problem Set A:
The Jonesburgh County Basketball Conference (JCBC) is an amateur basketball association. Each city in the county has one team as
its representative. Each team has a maximum of 12 players and a minimum of 9 players. Each team also has up to three coaches
(offensive, defensive, and physical training coaches). During the season, each team plays two games (home and visitor) against each of
the other teams. Given those conditions, do the following:
A. Identify the connectivity of each relationship
B. Identify the type of dependency that exists between CITY and TEAM
C. Identify the cardinality between teams and players and between teams and the city.
D. Identify the dependency between coach and team and between team and player
E. Draw the Chen and Crow’s Foot ERDs to represent the JCBC database
 6

Problem Set B:
The Hudson Engineering Group (HEG) has contacted you to create a conceptual model whose application will meet the expected
database requirements for the company’s training program. The HEG administrator gives you the description (see below) of the training
group’s operating environment. (Hint: Some of the following sentences identify the volume of data rather than cardinalities. Can you tell
me which ones?)
The HEG has 12 instructors and can handle up to 30 trainees per class. HEG offers five Advanced Technology courses, each of which
may generate several classes. If a class has fewer than 10 trainees, it will be canceled. Therefore, it is possible for a course not to
generate any classes. Each class is taught by one instructor. Each instructor may teach up to two classes or may be assigned to do
research only. Each trainee may take up to two classes per year.

Given the information, define all of the entities and relationship by creating the Chen and Crow’s Foot ERDs

Problem Set C:
The local city youth league needs a database system to help track children who sign up to play soccer. Data need to be kept on each
team and the children who will be playing on each team and their parents. Also, data need to be kept on the coaches for each team.

Draw the data model described below:

Entities required: Team, Player, Coach, and Parent.
Attributes required:
Team: Team ID number, Team name, and Team colors.
Player: Player ID number, Player's first name, Player's last name, and Player age.
Coach: Coach ID number, Coach's first name, Coach's last name, and Coach's home phone number.
Parent: Parent ID number, Parent last name, Parent first name, Home phone number, and Home Address
(Street, City, State, and Zip Code).

The following relationships must be defined:

• The team is related to the Player.
• The team is related to Coach.
• The player is related to Parent.

Connectivities and participations are defined as follows:

• A Team may or may not have a Player.
• A Player must have a Team.
• A Team may have many Players.
• A Player has only one Team.
• A Team may or may not have a Coach.
• A Coach must have a Team.
• A Team may have many Coaches.
• A Coach has only one Team.
• A Player must have a Parent.
• A Parent must have a Player.
7

• A Player may have many Parents.

• A Parent may have many Players.

Create the ERDs needed for this problem, both Chen and Crow’s Foot notation.

TinyVideo is a small movie rental company with a single store. TinyVideo needs a database system to track the rental of movies to its
members. TinyVideo can own several copies (VIDEO) of each movie (MOVIE). For example, the store may have 10 copies of the movie
“Twist in the Wind.” “Twist in the Wind” would be one MOVIE, and each copy would be a VIDEO. A rental transaction (RENTAL)
involves one or more videos being rented to a member (MEMBERSHIP). A video can be rented many times over its lifetime; therefore,
there is an M:N relationship between RENTAL and VIDEO. DETAILRENTAL is the bridge table to resolve this relationship

Activity #7:
As a freelance newbie to software development, you are trying to learn the basics of the language used in developing the application.
You focused on using Visual Basic in the production of the system of your soon-to-be clients.

Since you are still starting, you are exploring what are the tools that you can use, the coding syntax, and other technicalities. Thus, you
have decided to create a simple Student Information System.

The system should be able to get and hold the information inputted by the user, such as the name, course and year, birthdate, contact
number, and other essential information needed for the students. The data inputted should be stored in a list. The system should also
have the ability to update and delete the record from the list.

You may add more information aside from the mentioned ones. You should also consider the user interface of the system. It should be
user friendly, aesthetically pleasing, and easy to use and familiarize.

You, together with the of your 3 friends, have decided to create a startup IT solutions where it aims to provide systems and software to
those startup businesses in the city to enhance their business process.

Now you have found a client whose store is located in Divisoria and you have decided to create a Point-of-Sales system for them. The
store sells milk tea, coffees, and pastries, which can accommodate dine-in and take out orders. The system should be able to take
orders from customers, calculate the amount with its quantity, if the order is for dine-in or taking out, the overall total of the orders, the
customer name, and produce receipts or invoices based on the customer’s order. The system should be able to check and produce a
report regarding the sales made for the day, for the week, and the month.

Now for this final activity, you should be able to produce the system with a database. Identify the tables, fields, constraints, and data
types to be used for the system. You should also come up with an ER Diagram using the Crow’s Foot notation for your database. The
design of the POS system should be considered especially that the company is still a startup.

consistently clear
throughout the paper
Information supports a
central purpose or
argument at times. The
analysis is basic or
general. The reader
gains few insights.

excessively. Quotations
from others outweigh the
writer’s ideas
excessively.
Some sentences are
awkwardly constructed
so that the reader is
occasionally distracted.
Noticeable spelling &
grammar mistakes.

occasionally given,
many statements seem
unsubstantiated. The

the source of information
and ideas. Most of the
references are from
sources that are not
peer-reviewed and have
uncertain reliability. The
reader doubts the
accuracy of much of the
