What The Project Is
I am helping in the creation of a database that will hold data collected from video games that students will play. The database will track their progress in playing various games that teach them basic computer science. I will first design, implement, and then test the database. I will also be creating GUI forms in C# to connect the students to the database, as well as reading some papers and writing literature reviews for them.
