During practical laboratorysessions, students will develop their familiarity and skills with current database technology and tools. Together, the presentationmaterial, online notes and practical work cover all learning outcomes.

Assessment (formative or summative)The final class test assesses all LOs. Formative assessment is provided in the form of automated feedback on SQL problems, and during face-to-face interactions in practical sessions. Students are also encouraged to raise questions during lecture sessions and can thus guide the development of the discussion.
