Hello..

This course introduces basic concepts of Database Systems. It is intended to advocate E-learning. It covers nine lessons. They are:

  Lesson 1: Database Overview                         
  Lesson 2: Database objectives
  Lesson 3: Data Modeling Using the Entity-Relationship (ER) Model
  Lesson 4: Relational Data Model
  Lesson 5: Relational Database constraints
  Lesson 6: The Relational Algebra
  Lesson 7: The Relational Algebra Part 2
  Lesson 8: SQL: Schema Definition, Basic Constraints, and Queries
 Lesson 9: Functional Dependencies & Normalization

This course is a part of a project supported by the research center of the College of Computer and Information Sciences(CCIS). This project is a part of ongoing projects in the research center of CCIS to:

• develop a simple yet powerful course management system to support E-learning,
• develop the paper-contents of various courses in computing, including Object-oriented  programming, software Engineering, project mamgement, networking, information security, E-commerce, and database systems,
• make the course management system operational using the developed courses,
• furtehr the operation of the system with newly developed courses in computing.

I was blessed to be a participant in these projects as a co-investigator in the first project and as the principle investigator of the second. The output of the second project are the paper-contents of eight popular computing courses. The contents have been made available in power point and word format to be uploaded and managed by the locally developed management system.

A number of faculty members from CCIS participated in writing the courses. Among them are:

Prof. Mona Morsi
Prof. Ghazy Assassa
Dr. Sami Alwakil
Dr. Mehmet Aksoy
Dr. Amuer Touir
Dr. Sofian Gannouni
Dr. Saleh Hamami

I hope interested parties in E-learning find this endeavor useful.
