style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">Students
need to analyse the needs for the organisation in the case study and
hopefully will then build these into the database. For example in the Home
Health Case study provided by VITTA an organisational need is to provide an
effective way to calculate the commission for employee because at the moment
it is done by hand and this is time consuming and errors are made. The way you
can do this in a database is obvious. Sometimes the needs may not be so
obvious but need to look for the links with the database. Paula has used the
DOA thinking model. Get them to identify the decisions link these to the
options and then to the specific actions. We do not need to do this visually
until unit 4 but I try to get them thinking this way before
then.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
