Data analytics is applied to discover trends and patterns in health care data, and it predicts future events
based on the discoveries. Compare and contrast data analytics, specifically the use of explanatory or predictive
analysis, that you might employ for analyzing health data.

The purpose of this assignment is to provide learners a basic understanding for identifying a proposal for
collecting data, designing and developing a small database, and presenting the proposal to stakeholders.
To complete Part 3 of the Database Project Proposal assignment, create a PowerPoint (10-15 slides)
presentation video discussing your database proposal. Using Loom, record your presentation and submit the
unrestricted Loom link on the frst page of your PowerPoint presentation to the instructor.
Refer to the topic Resources for additional guidance on recording your presentation with Loom.
Part 1
Apply principles of the systems development life cycle (SDLC) in your proposal by including the SDLC phases
listed below into your presentation. You may copy and paste elements from past assignments that apply to
the SDLC.

1. Planning
2. Analysis (What are the requirements of the current system’s end user?)
3. Detailed Systems Design (Completes the design of the system’s processes, technical specifcations, data
dictionary, ERD diagram, training principles and methodologies.)
4. Implementation (Database is actually created and is customized by the creation of tables and views, user

authorizations, etc. During this implementation phase, the database enters into a cycle of coding, testing,
and debugging until it is ready.)
5. Maintenance (During this phase, end-users can begin to request change in it.)
Part 2
The presentation must also include the following elements of the proposal:
1. State the project problem and explain the role of the database in the organization.
2. Identify database users (personnel/credentials): Who are they? What are their competencies and
background? What training might the database end users need to utilize the database?
3. Discuss the types of data that users will collect for the proposed database and the types of reports that will
be generated for analysis, including an an explanation of their use as well as an explanation of who will use
the reports.
4. Describe the project goals and clear measurable objectives for the database.
5. Provide examples of database schema components: database dictionary and ERD diagram.
6. Demonstrate database functions by providing a screenshot of basic MySQL statements and their outcomes
for at least four rows: Statements include: CREATE TABLE, ALTER TABLE, QUERY TABLE, ADD A NEW
COLUMN, QUERY – COLUMN FUNCTIONS, ADD A NEW ROW, QUERY – AGGREGATION, MULTI-TABLEQUERIES – JOINING, and QUERY – MULTI-TABLE.
7. Explain policies, procedures, and regulations (HIPAA) to assure security, privacy, and integrity of the
database proposal.
8. Forecast any potential problems or barriers to meeting the project goals and objectives. Are there any
specifc assumptions that need to be made?
9. Conclude with the value of the project, emphasizing feasibility, cost (including future costs, security costs,
and hosting costs), necessity, usefulness, and the beneft of the expected results. Make sure to include an
explanation on how this database will save the organization time, money, and improve patient care/
treatment with the data it will store and query both now, and in the future.

Can you think of ways to validate the information from SQL queries or reports to assure a level of accuracy in
the results? When, if at all, is it better to extract raw data instead of summary information and what are the
best ways to present any retrieved information (e.g., tables, diagrams, narrative)?
