It teaches about the basic concepts of databases and how to use them (sqlite3) with python.Considering that databases are used in almost every application, the course needed to provide more details.

I learned how to create a database model and trying to create models for my own day to day data for practicing. It's a really great tool for sorting things out. Thanks Coursera, Thanks Dr. Chuck :)

Solid foundation course using python with databases. The instructor is good, keeps things simple at first while still teaching what is needed for a foundational course. Thanks for all the lessons!
