The article discusses how to adapt the Access Northwind Database for teaching database concepts. It aims to provide a detailed documentation of the database, including business processes, rules, relationships, and issues with the design. The focus is on enhancing teaching and learning by using the database effectively. The researchers suggest that students should already have a basic understanding of database design concepts before using the Northwind database as a teaching tool. The article highlights the scarcity of large sample databases for teaching and recommends the Sakila database as a solution.
