Reflection : Database

Assalamualaikum wbt.

Today we are learning about "database". AT the beginning, I really have no idea what database is. How ever,after we were told by our lecturer in our class, we eventually got a crystal clear view on what is "database".  So,
      
DATABASE  is an organized collection of data for one or more purposes, usually in digital form.

If we have created a database, we do not have to use the traditional method in managing the information. We only need the server to access the record. SO, there is no more SHELVES for recorded data!






We need to key in the "tables" for the arrangement of information.
For example, if we want to separate the column of  "Student's Name" and "Student's ID Number", then we have to put it in separate tables.
We can add the record (student's name) in "Datasheet View" mode.

The ribbon above shows the selection of "Adding Table" and etc.

So, database is very useful for a teacher to manage the student's information. As a student from Faculty of Education, it gives me a lot of advantages in order for me to use the method when i started teaching. 

A part from that, I find that database is something fun to do. Maybe it gives a bit headache, but actually it 
boost your focus of finding information. We will become more alert about the latest information.
