by Miller, Jonathan L

The paper documents the planning, design process and future implementation procedure of a video content database application for the Institute for Science Learning at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The project consisted of performing a systems analysis of the current video production process at the Institute for Science Learning; interviewing employees at the organization that will use the application most often to learn their needs in the database application; a database design; an interface design; a proposed implementation procedure to introduce the database application to the entire staff of the organization; and an analysis of future considerations in the database’s development.
