This is an individual assignment and must be the product of your own work. Students are reminded
to read the pages related to assessment rules, including rules for dishonest work, in the Toiohomai
Student code of practice.

This assignment, with the completed standard cover sheet (available from CTC Reception) attached,
must be submitted to your lecturer in hard copy into the assignment drop box (at CTC reception
AFTER it has been date stamped).
Also an electronic copy (including the report and all SQL saved files

) is to be emailed to your lecturer (Bahram.Pishravi@toiohomai.ac.nz) by the due date and time. The
subject should have a format like: “Comp.5205- Assignment1--Your name- Student ID”

Late assignments will not be marked; nor will any without the BITA date stamp on the cover sheet.

No hand written assignment will be accepted, the minimum tool you can use for drawing and writing
is Microsoft word.

Important Note: In some cases if back up to external server was not possible a folder will be
provided for you to backup you’re backed up database to the Toiohomai server folders.

Report Quality/Presentation.
Your report should be presented in a professional manner meeting the following requirements:

 Must have the required cover page and table of contents, with your student name, student ID
and paper code.
 Should have sections and be error free.

Learning Outcome covered:

2. Demonstrate knowledge of relational data management, including making use of basic SQL
commands.
3. Apply relational database administration, including setting up database users, granting
permissions, and backing up data as well as importing data from and exporting data to
external systems.
