Teaching Database Development with Hypertext

Abstract

This paper discusses our experiences in designing and authoring a hypertext system to guide students through a database project. The system targets instruction in three areas: developing database skills, directing analysis and design of a business's data needs and supporting construction of a database application to meet those business needs. The hypertext tool was built to conform to the standards of Microsoft's WinHelp help system architecture. Initial experiences with the system support the claim that the tool assists students in analyzing, designing and implementing database solutions.
