A course is assigned a unique course code and a module is identified by a unique module code. A module can be used in one course only, but can be studied by many students. In addition to the module code each module unique title, start date, end date, texts (books), and assessment scheme (i.e., coursework and exam marks percentages) are also stored.
Each course is managed by a member of academic staff, and each module is coordinated by a member of academic staff also. The database should also store each course unique title, and duration (in years).
A student can enroll in one course at a time. Once enrolled a student is assigned a unique matriculation number. To complete a course, each student must undertake and pass all the required modules in his/her course. This requires that the database store the…

- An E-learning website needs your help to design its database. They need to store information about teachers and online tutorials. Each teacher has a unique ID, name, and at least one field of specialty. Teachers form groups to prepare online tutorials. Each group has unique name and at least one teacher as a member. Each online tutorial has a title, date and organized by exactly one group. The title of the tutorial is unique for the group. Each tutorial consists of several sessions, described by their titles and durations. Naturally, each session is presented by one teacher and belongs to exactly one tutorial. In addition, sessions on the same tutorial have different titles. Design an ERD for this application. Note any unspecified requirements, and make appropriate assumptions to make the specification complete.arrow_forwardAccess path A database table is composed of records and fields hold data. Data is stored in records. A field is a part of a record and contains a single piece of data for the subject of the record. The access path for finding the list of books is AUTHOR: AuthorID, Lname BOOKAUTHOR: AuthorID, ISBN BOOKS: Pubdate, ISBNarrow_forwardEach publisher has a unique name; a mailing address and telephone number are also kept on each publisher. A publisher publishes one or more books; a book is published by exactly one publisher. A book is identified by its ISBN, and other attributes are title, price, and number of pages. Each book is written by one or more authors; an author writes one or more books, potentially for different publishers. Each author is uniquely described by an author ID, and we know each author’s name and address. Each author is paid a certain royalty rate on each book he or she authors, which potentially varies for each book and for each author. An author receives a separate royalty check for each book he or she writes. Each check is identified by its check number, and we also keep track of the date and amount of each check. As you develop the ERD for this problem, follow good data naming guidelines.arrow_forward
