Databases

Overall I'm glad I got some familiarity with databases. I was a little shaky still when I was asked to create them. I'd like to continue working with them to get more familiarity with them. To be honest I'm not sure yet of their application in my particular classroom. I have a feeling that this would be an extension activity for a small handful of kids that are up for the challenge. I think that some of them would be able to follow an existing one that was pre-made by me and get some benefit from it as far as analysis. Others would benefit from exposure to the concept but would not yet be ready to handle it.

Just apply wherever it works. Good idea about piloting with a small group of students who are up to the challenge.
