CIS 111 Week 2 Assignment 1 Business Rules and
Data Models (2 Papers)
This Tutorial contains 2 Papers
Assignment 1: Business Rules and Data Models
Suppose a local college has tasked you to develop a database that will
keep track of students and the courses that they have taken. In addition
to tracking the students and courses, the client wants the database to
keep track of the instructors teaching each of the courses.
Use the internet to research the types of information that a college would
want to track in a database. Focus your attention on information that

could represent entities within a database as well as attributes of such
entities.
Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:
Describe the purpose of the database.
Based on your research and / or common knowledge of a college and the
information tracked by a college, describe the entities of the database
and the attributes of each entity.
Based on your research and / or common knowledge of a college and the
information tracked by a college, describe the business rules that could
impact the structure of the database.
Determine the information that the conceptual model of the database
would include and determine the information that the physical model of
the database would include.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with
one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA
or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional
instructions.
Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s
name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover
page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment
page length.
The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment
are:
Describe the role of databases and database management systems in
managing organizational data and information.
Compose conceptual data modeling techniques to capture the
information requirements.
Use technology and information resources to research issues in database
systems.
Write clearly and concisely about relational database management
systems using proper writing mechanics and technical style conventions.

After reviewing your database design from Lab 1: Creating a Database
Design in Visio, the college has provided more information for the
database that they want developed:
For each student, the college needs to track the student ID, student
names, addresses, start date, phone numbers and types (such as mobile,
home, work), email addresses and types (such as personal, school,
work), gender, and birth date.
For each course, the college needs to track the course ID, course name,
department, quarters offered, sections, and instructor teaching each
course.
For each instructor, the college needs to track the instructor ID, name,
address, phone numbers and types (such as mobile, home, work), email
addresses and types (such as personal, school, work), gender, birth date,
and the courses that each instructor is qualified to teach.
Additionally, the college needs to track the final grades for each student
after each course has completed.
Section 1: Modified Visio Diagram
