Week 2 Assignment: Relational Database Tables

Course Objective:

  • CO1. Utilize Excel to create, organize, and analyze lists of data.
  • CO2. Develop an understanding of relational databases and how to import data into a relational database.

Assignment Prompt:
Before you start with this assignment, you will want to watch the five videos in the Reading & Resources section under Content in week 2 bin. This week you will be creating two new databases in Access (this assignment does not use the Excel databases you downloaded in week 1). Complete instructions are listed below for how to create your two new “Contacts” databases inside of Access. As this file will go no further than your instructor if you want to complete these two databases with family, friends, coworkers, business, and social contacts, you are free to do so. A great source for all of this information is in your Cell phone. Likewise, if you are uncomfortable with using real contacts, you may make some up (Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Frank Zappa, Paul McCartney, Elvis Presley, etc.). The two databases you are creating this week will be used in the next assignment, so, take care of developing and complete them as accurately as possible.

Assignment Instructions:

  1. Complete the databases in one Access file that you will submit below as your homework for week 2.
  2. The work you do this week may look like a lot of busywork, however this database, once completed, will be used in two future classes (week 3 and week 5) where you build queries, forms, and reports.
  3. The intent of this assignment is to create your own personal database of contacts (individual and Company). Your Cell phone or contacts database in your personal email software is an excellent source for the data you will need for this assignment. The database will be kept confidential and no one but your instructor will see it. If you are concerned about confidentiality, your only other choice is to create a database of fake names.
  4. Start your project by constructing a “Form” in Access with the fields listed below. There is an excellent resource for how to build a form in the “Content: Reading & Resources” section. If you would like to review how to create forms you can also use this hyperlink: Access Forms Transcript can be accessed on video host site.
  5. Include a minimum of 35 contacts, more would be better. Use at least 10 organizations, businesses, or service provider company contacts, again more would be better
  6. If you receive any recommended changes from your instructor when he or she returns your work after grading, please complete these changes before the next week’s assignment
  7. Follow the directions below exactly, enough said, let’s get these done and move on to using them in future classes.

Literature Review Presentation – Atypical Language Development

In this assignment, you will select a student population at high risk for atypical language development from a list provided and complete a literature review using a minimum of five sources (three sources may be module readings, but at least two sources must be outside the module readings). The goal of your literature review will be to identify the reasons the selected population is considered at risk and appropriate strategies for assessment and intervention. Your final product is a slide presentation appropriate for a stakeholder audience, such as parents or colleagues.

  • Create a slide presentation consisting of 7-9 slides, including a title and references slide.
  • Use APA format for the references slide and in-text citations.

  • English language learners
  • Highly mobile students
  • Students with intellectual disabilities
  • Students from culturally and linguistically diverse families

Discussion Questions

1.Skills for Foundational Language

Centers are one way to develop language skills in the areas of listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

View the video, REACH Workshop Series Oral Language.

Links to an external site.

  • How could you use centers to develop oral language skills for students?
  • How are students developing phonological awareness during these activities?
  • What language skills do children develop in literacy centers?

 

2.High-Risk Populations for Atypical Language Development

Students developing atypical language patterns are at risk for developing reading and writing delays. Reflect on the students you have worked with or are currently working with who are either at risk of or identified as having atypical language development.

  • What are your experiences working with dual language learners?
  • What are your experiences working with children with atypical language development?
  • How might you differentiate instruction for a dual language learner and a student with processing deficits? Why?

 

3.Instructional Strategies to Develop Reading Comprehension

Many students read text without understanding what it is they just read. Students with learning disabilities often have processing deficits which result in difficulty reading and comprehending text. Graphic organizers are a great strategy for both increasing vocabulary and reading comprehension.

  • How would you use graphic organizers to assist in vocabulary development in struggling readers?
  • How can you provide instruction using graphic organizers to develop reading comprehension skills for your struggling readers?

 

4.Betsy Van Deusen MacLeod describes the benefits of using literacy centers as “providing both a physical and social context for learning.”

In their article describing the value of learning centers at the high school level, Moritz and Holmes note: “When students worked on individual and cooperative projects in the centers, they were engaged with the content at deeper, more meaningful levels. The learning centers contained multisensory and differentiated activities that helped meet the diverse range of student interests, ability levels, and needs.”

  • What is your experience with literacy centers?
  • How can literacy centers be used to gather data and create comprehensive and data-informed instruction?
  • How could you differentiate instruction in a literacy center to provide Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions for struggling readers?
