The aim of this activity is to think about how databases can be used and also when they cannot be used.
Read the following information about the guides carefully.
Your two guides, as you will have found out from activity 1, are Jane and Enoch. Both Jane and Enoch have left school and they now work. Both are happy about this - they never really enjoyed school. Both of them come from similar backgrounds and they are good friends.
Look at the underlined statements. With a partner look at each one and decide:
- Can the statement be checked using the database?
- If it can be checked, check it.
- If it cannot be checked, explain why not.
| Statement about Jane and Enoch | Can it be checked by the database? Yes/No | Proof from the database | Why it can`t be checked from the database |
