Comprehensive Database Practice: with optional barcode scanners and NFC reader integration.

by Fadi Safieddine

Using 'Active learning' approach, this book presents a unique method to learning database development. Students follow the case of a business database system of a grocery store from the start as a case study all the way to the complete operational system. The introduction of barcode and NFC readers being optional nonetheless greatly enhance the experience and interest in the subject. This book would make excellent complement for many database design books that focus on the theory and less on the application. "In my 16 years of teaching in higher education, I have noticed students understand database theory better once they use database in application. Case study practice helps students understand abstract concepts such as entities, tables, attributes, primary keys, foreign keys, relationships and other database concepts and terms better." - Dr. Fadi Safieddine
