ASSESSMENT METHODS:
 Interview/Written Test
 Demonstration/Observation with Oral Questioning
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA:
LO1 Write an SQL statement to retrieve and sort data
 All the data from a table is retrieved following work procedure.
 Data from specific columns in a single table is retrieved.
 'Order by' is used to sort query output.
 Number of rows restricted is retrieved by placing criteria in the 'where' clause.
 Number of rows restricted is retrieved by placing specific criteria in the select statement.
 Comparison operators in the 'where' clause is used to compare numeric, character, string,
date and time data
 Boolean operators is used with the correct precedence
 Criteria in the 'where' clause is used to check for a range of values, to select values from a
list, and to check for values that match a pattern
 SQL syntax is used to suppress duplicate values from query results
 Action is taken to exclude null values from a query result
LO2 Write SQL statements that use functions
 Arithmetical operators is used with the correct precedence
 String functions and operators is used to obtain the required query output
 Mathematical functions is used to obtain the required output, where required
 Date functions are used to obtain the required output
 SQL aggregate functions are used to obtain the required out put
LO3 Write SQL statements that use aggregation and filtering
 'Group by' used to aggregate data by multiple columns
 Aggregated data is sorted in the query output
 Aggregated data is filtered using the 'having' clause
LO4 Write and execute SQL sub-queries
 Single and nested sub-queries are constructed
 Sub-queries are constructed that return a single row, and multiple rows
 Correlated sub-queries are used to retrieve required data
 Sub-queries are written that use aggregates
