Given the consistent issues reported by students, I am providing two options on how to work on ICA1 and Assignment 1 in case MySQL Workbench doesn’t provide appropriate features.
- For those who would like to create a database schema based on MySQL Workbench:
You can create database schema using MySQL Workbench on a virtual machine using the Owlab: https://owlab.temple.edu
The machine has MySQL Workbench so once you use your Accessnet account to login, you can search MySQL in the left button search bar. Then, you can use the software to finish your work.
The page below provides the process on how you can log in to the machine: https://cla.temple.edu/tech-notes/remote-access/owlab/
- Alternative software (vertabelo.com)
Alternatively, you can also use a software called Vertabelo to create a schema.
You can check the demonstration video I made that explains how to create an account and a database schema. The solution of ICA1 provided on canvas also shows how the schema may look like when you use Vertabelo. In case you are planning to use Vertabelo, please use the instructions for Vertabelo when finishing ICA 1 and Assignment 1.
So please feel free to use either of the options when creating a database schema for part 1 in ICA1 and Assignment 1.
