Why are we doing this?

Are you prepared for the Saturday class? It is essential to start learning new concepts and ideas before Saturday’s session. During the week, we expect you to get stuck and form questions about the new content so you can address misconceptions during Saturday’s session. Double check you’ve done the prep work before continuing with other backlog issues.

This project is about really understanding your database by representing it in a diagram. How do the tables relate to each other? How do references work? What is the primary key? What is a foreign key? Drawing a simple schema will clear this all up.

Remember, simple is better. Use a pencil and paper.
