Lost River Wind Riders: A Project for Teaching Database Design

Abstract

Lost River Winder Riders is a project designed to provide students with a challenging hands-on exercise in relational database design. It is extensive enough to provide a stimulating exercise, but not so large as to be overwhelming. This case can be used as an individual or team project in a database design course. It is sufficiently detailed to challenge students as they apply design concepts to a problem that closely simulates a real-world situation.
