Database Management
Muhtasari
Every organisation collects data, but collecting it is only half the story. A database turns a heap of records into something you can search, sort, validate and report on in seconds. Understanding how databases are structured and queried is a core skill tested across both papers of the Edexcel IGCSE ICT course.
In this lesson you will learn the building blocks of a database, from fields and records to primary keys and relationships. You will explore the five data types Edexcel expects you to recognise, apply validation rules to catch errors at the point of entry, build queries using relational and logical operators, and produce polished outputs including reports and mail-merge documents.
Malengo
- Identify data types: alphanumeric/text, numeric/number, date, currency, logical/Boolean
- Explain the structure of a given database, including record, field, table, primary key/field, foreign key/field, relationships between tables
- Explain the need for validation and identify validation checks such as range check, presence check, type check, length check
- Sort using a single field, multiple fields, ascending/descending order
- Input information to given tables or forms applying format consistently
- Use search/query using single criterion, multiple criteria, search within results, relational operators, logical operators
- Produce outputs: reports, mail merge documents, specified fields, design view (table structure, searches/queries, forms, relationships), data view (table, search/query results, forms)
