Blog #11 – Oral Recitation: ERD, Normalization, and the Data Dictionary

For this week’s blog, we had an oral recitation covering three important database design topics: Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD), Database Normalization, and the Data Dictionary. What made this recitation unique was the use of a module roulette, where questions were randomly selected from Modules 7, 8, and 9. The exciting twist? We were allowed to use our notes, and those who raised their hands first had the chance to answer!

Here’s a quick recap of what we covered:

📌 Module 7 – Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD): An ERD is a visual representation of the system’s data structure. It maps out key entities—like users, records, or transactions—and the relationships between them. Using symbols like rectangles (for entities) and diamonds (for relationships), the ERD helps developers and stakeholders understand how the database is structured and how different components interact.

📌 Module 8 – Database Normalization: This process ensures that data is well-organized and free from redundancy. Normalization involves dividing tables into smaller, related ones and defining relationships between them. It’s essential for eliminating anomalies (like insert, update, or delete issues) and maintaining data integrity across the system.

📌 Module 9 – Data Dictionary: The Data Dictionary is a text-based reference that describes all the data elements in a system—like field names, data types, relationships, and constraints. It acts as a central guide for developers, helping maintain consistency and clarity when designing or updating databases.

I’m happy to share that I passed the oral recitation and met the score requirements! 😊 It feels great to see hard work and preparation pay off, especially when discussing topics that will play a big role in our ongoing research project.

Excited to keep building on this knowledge as we continue with our manuscript and system design!
