Written by one of the world's leading database authorities, Database Concepts 3e, introduces the essential concepts students need to create and use small databases.

Do you emphasize concepts first and then the tools available?

Conceptual Standpoint- Teaching Concepts Independent of DBMS Products illustrates database concepts with Microsoft Access, SQL Server 2005 Express edition, and MySQL 5.0. Students can use these products as tools, but all concepts are presented in a DMBS-agnostic manner.
- Pg.

Do you use Access with your students?

Access WorkBench sections are included in each chapter to illustrate concepts and techniques using Access. The Access Workbench topics start with creating a database and a single table in Section one and end with Web database processing against an Access database in Section Seven. All necessary basics are included so students can effectively build and use Access databases.
- Pg.

Do you assign cases?

Start-to-finish running cases teach key database concepts through real-world scenarios and case studies, with all sample databases downloadable from the companion Web site. This enables students to understand the real-world challenges they will face in designing, developing, and managing databases.
- Pg.

Do you assign a variety of questions, exercises and projects for homework?

Review Questions, Exercises, and Projects - Each chapter concludes with review questions, exercises and three projects (Garden Glory, James River Jewelry, Queen Anne Curiosity Shop) that run throughout the book.
- Pg.
