Class Material and Personal Research.

IMPORTANT NOTE: You will have to have a valid IU NetworkID and be officially enrolled in A290/A590 in order to access the resources presented below .

Important Shared Resources.

This is where I will put links to important resources everyone needs access to. This area should grown as the course progresses.

SAMPLE TABLE SETS: Here are the sample table sets for A290Test.sql , and A290RecipeTest.sql . BE SURE YOU right-click and "SAVE LINK AS" or it will try to open the file instead of saving it. Instead, you need to save each file to your desktop or othe location on the computer you are using. Once you have both files on your local computer, consult Meeting Guide 4 about how to carefully edit and then load these files into your own database account.

Written assignments will appear here at least 3 days before they are due. They may be due every week (day/date indicated) by 10:00pm unless otherwise noted. BE SURE to follow all instructions provided with each assignment. Canvas Assignments will be the usual method of submission.

WHAT IS A PRECIS?: I have prepared a brief document designed to further clarify what I am looking for in the precis part of each of your MINIs and how it is different than your personal summary. Hope this helps.

MINI 1. Due to your "MINI 1" Assignment on Canvas on Sunday, March 17, 2024 by 10:00PM. (posted 3/6 @ 10:00am)

Here is a sample submission from a previous semester of this course from a single student for the 3 topics on a MINI 1 that each earned ONLY 3/5 because both the precis and summary for each topic were too brief and now well organized. (posted 3/19 @ 2:00pm)

Here is another sample submission from a previous semester of this course from a single student for the 3 topics on a MINI 1 that each earned the FULL 5/5 because all sections were thorough and well organized. More words alone do not guarantee higher quality, but compare this to the previous sample and you should be able to understand the difference. NOTE ALSO: This student chose the option to write a precis for every source instead of one longer precise covering all 3 sources. (posted 3/19 @ 2:00pm)
