Introductory Message
Welcome to ICT 9!
The Learning Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional materials aimed to guide
the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and time using the contextualized
resources in the community. This will also assist the learners in acquiring the lifelong
learning skills, knowledge and attitudes for productivity and employment.
For learning facilitator:
The ICT 9 Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the leaching-learning activities
specified in each Most Essential Learning Competency (MELC) with minimal or no face-to-
face encounter between you and learner. This will be made available to the learners with
the references/links to ease the independent learning.
For the learner:
The ICT 9 Activity Sheet is developed to help you continue learning even if you are
not in school. This learning material provides you with meaningful and engaging activities
for independent learning. Being an active learner, carefully read and understand the
instructions then perform the activities and answer the assessments. This will be returned
to your facilitator on the agreed schedule.

ICT-9 ACTIVITY SHEET
Database Management
Learning Competency:
Discuss how different data are stored through a program.
Support Competencies:
1. Differentiate data and information.
2. Differentiate Manual Filing System, File-based System and Database System.
3. Explain what is a Database Management System.
Background information for the learners
The data that every organization creates is a very valuable resource, that is why data
management is very important.
With proper data management, an organization will be more organized and productive. For
example, it will be easier for employees to find and understand the information that they need to do
their job. Information will be easily shared, stored and rerieved.
In this lesson, you will learn how data are kept or stored from a manual system, file-
based system, and to a more reliable, efficient and secured way storing data in a program
using a database management system.

Databases have become an integral part of the day-to-day life in the business world. Banks,
airlines, hospitals, and other businesses and agencies are using this to maintain an efficient
and secured flow of information in their daily transactions.
Database system is a combination of software, data and computer hardware that implements a
collection of data models and applications. A database system uses a DBMS together with
application programs to create an information system for a specific purpose.
Database Management System (DBMS)
• A Database Management Systems (DBMS) is software that facilitates the definition,
creation, storing, maintenance or and access control to the database.
• It allows users to insert, update, and retrieve data from the database.
• It has features such as security (preventing unauthorized users from accessing the
database), transaction management, backup, and recovery.
Components of DBMS Environment
• Hardware. Physical device on which the DBMS resides. The particular hardware depends of
the organization’s requirements and the DBMS used
Example: disk drives, printers, cables, etc.
• Software. The software component comprises of the DBMS software itself and the application
programs together with the operating system.
• Data. It contains both the operational data and meta data. (a data that describes or gives
information on another data.) It acts as a bridge between the machine components and
human components.
• Procedures. Refers to the instructions and rules that govern the design and use of the
database. The user of the system and the staff that manage the database requires require
documented procedure on how to use or run the system.
• Users. People who interact with the database.
Example: application programmers, end-users, data administrators

components.
