As you reflect back on Project #1, what stands out to you, impacted you, or was reinforced through it?
Reflecting back on Project #1, I was reinforced with the knowledge of how useful a database is. When having to record data, it was interesting, and frustrating at times, to see how all the data was connected. I would try to enter or change data but I couldn't until I changed it in a specific table first. All of it was worth it in the end when making forms and queries. The forms and queries were able to simply and create readably data quickly and nicely which is amazing.
