CONTENT
INTRODUCTION TO RELATIONAL MODEL
The relational model is a way to structure and organize data into tables, making it easy to
manage and retrieve. Imagine you're organizing a school's student information. You'd want to
store details like names, class, and contact information.
Key Components:
1. Tables: Think of tables like spreadsheets. Each table stores data about a specific topic,
like students or teachers.
2. Rows: Each row in a table represents a single record or entry. For example, a row
might represent a single student.
3. Columns: Columns represent individual fields or attributes. For example, columns
might include "Name," "Class," or "Email."
4. Primary Key: A primary key is a unique identifier for each record in a table. It's like a
student ID number.
5. Foreign Key: A foreign key is a field in one table that references the primary key in
another table. It helps link related data between tables.

How it Works:
1. You create tables to store different types of data.
2. You define relationships between tables using primary and foreign keys.
3. You can then query the data by linking tables together based on these relationships.

Example:
Suppose we have two tables: "Students" and "Subjects."

"Students" table:
Student ID (Primary Key) Name Class
1 John Doe Sss 1c
2 Jane Smith Sss 2c
"Courses" table:
Course ID (Primary Key) Subject Student ID (Foreign Key)
1 Maths 1
2 English 2
3 Civic 1

By linking the "Students" and "Courses" tables using the Student ID foreign key, we can easily
retrieve information about which courses each student is taking.

STRATEGIES AND ACTIVITIES: Whole class discussion, think-pair-share, small group


Activity 1:
a) Teacher writes the learning objectives on the board and shares with the students
b) Students discuss and revise last lesson and link it with today’s lesson
c) Students explain some stated key vocabulary word

Activity 2: Students in small groups are arranged together into sections and are asked to
focus on the limitation of flat-file database and the concept of relationship using students
and subjects.

Activity 3: Students think and share with peers how related data can be arranged such that
each group will be together for easy access and management.

Activity 4: Students participate in class discussion as teacher allows them to ask question in
their area of difficulty and evaluates.

ASSESSMENT:
1. Describe relational model

WRAP-UP (CONCLUSION):
The relational model is a way to structure and organize data into tables, making it easy to
manage and retrieve. Imagine you're organizing a school's student information. You'd want to
store details like names, class, and contact information.

RELATIONAL MODELS
What is the Relational Model?
The relational model is a way to organize and store data in a structured format using tables,
rows, and columns. It's like a spreadsheet, but more powerful and flexible.

How is Data Represented in the Relational Model?


In the relational model, data is represented as:
1. Tables: Also known as relations, these are the structures that hold the data. Think of
them as spreadsheets.
2. Rows: Each row represents a single record or entry in the table.
3. Columns: Each column represents a field or attribute of the data.
4. Primary Key: A unique identifier for each row in the table.

Steps to Create Tables and Insert Data


Here are the steps to create tables and insert data in the relational model:
Step 1: Define the Table Structure
1. Identify the fields or attributes you want to store in the table.
2. Determine the data type for each field (e.g., text, number, date).
3. Decide on a primary key for the table.
Step 2: Create the Table
1. Use a database management system (DBMS) like MySQL or Microsoft Access.
2. Create a new table with the defined structure.
Step 3: Insert Data into the Table
1. Use the DBMS to insert data into the table.
2. Enter data into each field, making sure to follow the defined data types.
3. Ensure each row has a unique primary key.
Example
Suppose we want to create a table to store student information:
Field Name Data Type Description
Student ID Number Unique identifier for each student
Name Text Student's full name
Class Number Student's current grade level

We would create the table with the above structure and then insert data into it:
Student ID Name Class
1 John Doe 3
2 Jane Smith 2
3 Bob Johnson 1

CONTENT
PROCESS OF INFORMATION TRANSMISSION (I)
Information Transmission is the process of sending out processed data from one person or
place to another in a meaningful form through a communication medium.

METHODS OF INFORMATION TRANSMISSION


There are two methods of transmitting information, namely:
1. Ancient Method of Information Transmission
2. Modern Method of Information Transmission

Ancient Methods of Transmitting Information


These are the methods used by our forefathers in sending out information. They include the
following:
1. Oral (Face to Face) Communication: This is a method whereby the sender (informant)
meets with the receiver (recipient) face-to-face to pass information across.
2. Beating Drums: Drums are used to inform the Villagers of certain invents such as
hunting, farming, death announcements etc. Every event has its unique tune that the
villagers can understand.
3. Smoke Signals: This method is used to pass information by bush burning to alert the
people in the environment of the incoming danger.
4. Making representation: Information could be sent from one village to another with the
use of representation e.g. tying a cutlass with a red cloth will inform the receiver that
something bad is coming if proper attention is not taken.
5. Town Crier: Information is transmitted by the town crier by shouting the information
repeatedly around the town.
6. Drawing diagrams: The diagram will be drawn on the walls or the backs of trees. The
messages are always understood by the person it was made for.
Modern Methods of Transmitting Information
With the development in technology, it is now possible to pass information straight to the
audience. Modern means of transmitting information include:
1. Writing: Instead of making marks or using objects to communicate, in modern times,
information can be transmitted by writing, which is done either by hand or by using
machines such as computers or typewriters.
2. Printing Machine: Printed materials are just like typewritten ones. Printing allows the
mass production of informative materials that could be spread far and wide e.g.
production of invitation cards, handbills newspapers etc.
3. Radio: Voice information is broadcast to a group of people in a geographical location at
the same time within a few minutes.
4. Television: This is used to broadcast information in form of both voice and pictures to
people in different locations.
5. Internet: This means international network. Information in this case is globally
broadcasted to the whole world for those that have an interest in updating themselves.
6. Fax: This transmits text and graphic messages from one location to another. It might
be within the country or outside the country with the use of a series of numbers called
fax number.
7. Telephone: Telephone allows people’s voices to be transmitted over long or short
distances.
8. Telex: A telex machine is used to transmit textual information from one person to
another usually over a long distance.
9. Satellite: A satellite is an object which has been placed into orbit by human endeavour
in order to improve sending radio, telephone and internet signals to any part of the
world. Such objects are sometimes called artificial satellites to distinguish them from
natural satellites such as the moon.
10. GSM: GSM means Global System for Mobile Communication. We use this to send and
receive phone calls. One benefit of a GSM phone is the addition of a SIM card or
Subscriber Identification Module.

STRATEGIES AND ACTIVITIES: Whole class discussion, think-pair-share, investigative


Activity 1:
a) Teacher writes the learning objectives on the board and shares with the students
b) Students discuss and revise last lesson and link it with today’s lesson

BUILDING BACKGROUND/ CONNECTION TO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE: Students are familiar
with using passwords and pin to protect their mobile devices and computers .

CONTENT:
Data security refers to the practices and techniques used to protect digital data from
unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction.

Importance of Data Security


1. Confidentiality: Protects sensitive information from falling into the wrong hands.
2. Integrity: Ensures data is accurate and trustworthy.
3. Availability: Ensures data is accessible when needed.
4. Compliance: Meets regulatory requirements for data protection.
5. Reputation: Protects individuals and organizations from reputational damage.

Encrypting Data
Encryption is the process of converting plaintext data into unreadable ciphertext to protect it
from unauthorized access.

Types of Encryption
a. Symmetric Encryption: Uses the same key for encryption and decryption.
b. Asymmetric Encryption: Uses a pair of keys: one for encryption and another for
decryption.

Encrypting Data using Caesar Cipher (Simple Method)


1. Choose a shift number (e.g., 3).
2. Replace each letter with the letter shifted by the chosen number (e.g., "a" becomes
"d").
3. Apply the same shift to each letter in the plaintext data.

Example
Plaintext: HELLO
Shift: 3
Ciphertext: KHOOR
Note
Caesar Cipher is a simple encryption method and not recommended for sensitive data. For
secure encryption, use established algorithms like AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) with
appropriate key management.
