I thought it was really interesting how the link for the Database Normalization claimed to be too hard to use just words to describe the normalization process but the images and figures for the article did not load onto it. I went through the article hoping that they would be at the end, but they weren't.
The wikipedia article on the entity-relationship model was something that seemed familiar to me. The description of it is that every component of a business model has a relationship with each other component. When it mentioned data tables, used in just about all fields really, and explained how that is a entity-relationship model it clicked in my head. Another thing about that article is the use of the relationships and how they're represented in the database, it seems like a very intuitive way to have the model.
Another problem occurred when trying to access the database wikipedia article, a page from Blackboard appeared and stated that I did not have permission to access it. I went on to wikipedia myself and found it. It was a very technical article that was difficult to digest, but definitely showcased how important databases are to many different aspects of different careers. The best part of this article was that the terminology was defined at the beginning of it, made it a little bit easier to understand.
