Database Management Systems [CYIM 2D, Spring 2022]

Course Description

This course covers the fundamental concepts of database management systems. Topics include data modeling, entity-relationship models, integrity rules and constraints, functional dependencies, normalization, etc.

Grading

  1. In the class, there will be easy assignments almost every week, for which you can ask classmates for verbal help. These account for roughly 45% of total grades.
  2. There are also 3 to 5 quizzes which together account for roughly 45% of total grades. The quizzes are in the form of blank-filling questions. (But in reality they are more like matching questions.)
  3. Class participation and attendence account for 10% of total grades.
  4. Total grade = \( \frac{ \sum_i \mbox{your $i$-th grade} }{ \sum_i \mbox{full grade for $i$-th quiz or assignment} } * 100 \) For a quiz or assignment where you ask for leave, "full grade for i-th quiz or assignment" is replaced by "full grade for i-th quiz or assignment * \( \mu \)" \( \mu \) is roughly 0.3. It means that the more leaves you ask for, the worse it will adversely affect your total grades.

Important Notes:

  1. Cheating behaviors in quizzes are strictly forbidden and will result in failing the class.
  2. If you cannot come to the class, you must ask for a personal day off before the class. This is most important especially for those classes when we have quizzes.
