Max Data

Databases have never been easier...or more fun! MaxData works with Microsoft Excel — Microsoft Access not required — to give students an age-appropriate introduction to databases. Students learn all aspects of data handling from the first steps of simple representation of data to learning database concepts such as fields, field types, records, tables and filters. Plus, MaxData's easy-to-use interface has three grade-appropriate levels so students can concentrate on the ideas, relationships and information being explored.
