[Year 12 SofDev] RE: SD & Networking

[Russell Quinn]

In my last email I forgot to include the data model.
Currently SD is way too process orientated.
We need more time for the data model and data design - 
entity relation diagrams leading on to the data dictionary.
More time spent on relational matters - primary key,
foreign keys.  Perhaps normal forms etc.  Include SQL 
as a formal part of the course. These matters are much 
more relevant to software development
that any networking.

I dont believe SD is about teaching  them how to just program though ? 
Dont know about linked lists either but maybe collections i better.
