That being said, here are the two topics/questions:

Databases:

Think about a situation where you have experienced a poorly designed database (it could have been at work, in school, or in your personal life). For the purposes of your discussion, a "poorly designed database" might involve the following; lack of clarity when entering things in, challenges searching the data of interest, relevant data not being stored, etc.

Do you think the issue was caused by bad database design, or bad data modeling? Justify your thought(s).

Where did the main breakdown occur? Business Case -> Data Model -> Database -> End User

Excel Analysis:

Briefly explain your main takeaways from the Excel Analysis Assignment regarding data analysis, data preparation, and how you answer questions with data.

It will probably be helpful to think about this through the lens of the Analytical Thinking Discussion Post question from Module 1.

It may also be helpful to review the Excel Analysis Feedback Response material/videos when considering your takeaways.
