2. Creating a Schema John Wright

3. Where to Start We start with the ERD. We create a relation for each entity. We need to determine the attributes for each entity.  We normally do this on the ERD, but for this exercise I will do it in the SCHEMA We then apply the rules of dependancy to normalize the relations. We then apply determine the primary/foreign key relationships. (See the other slide presentation for help in this.).

7. Normalization Normally we normalize at this point. See the presentation on normalization. Normalization is determined by dependancies. Next, we add foreign keys using the rules found in the Schema presentation.
