This workshop will demonstrate how users can easily
develop Web-based interactive databases for classes,
administration, and research. FileMaker Pro 5.0 will be used
in the workshop. For class use, a database used by general
psychology students will be shown. Students submit one URL
per test, for a total of five. Using the features of the
database, grading the URLs of 70 students takes around 30
minutes. For administrative use, a master class schedule
will be shown. That database allows faculty, administrators,
and staff to quickly find instructors, courses, classrooms,
and buildings. The database is configured so that authorized
users may edit and add records as needed. For research, a
database used to catalog and annotate URLs in biology will
be shown. Researchers find URLs, catalog them, annotate
them, and serve them. In the last half hour of the workshop,
the audience will help create a new database containing
records and fields related to the presenters at this
conference from scratch and serve it on the Web.
