What are we learning?
Understand the basics of databases. 
How is database information used, organized, and managed in business? 
What formatting options are available when creating databases?


Guided Lesson: 

Intelligence gathering has occurred throughout history. 

The NSA uses "queries" (A database query is a piece of code (a query) 
that is sent to a database in order to get information back from 

the database. ) to meet its objectives of counterterrorism,
counterproliferation and cyber security. However, many people
question if gathering huge amounts of metadata without a

warrant violates our 4th Amendment rights. (The right of the people to be
secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable
searches and seizures)
