The focus of the MOOC is the data query language SQL which is the best known relational query language. The MOOC starts with a short introduction into the word of databases and the theoretical fundamentals. Further topics are the creation and filling of SQL-databases, first simple SQL-queries as well as complex and nested queries.
The animated character Sam Winter leads through the course (see Figure 1). She accompanies the students in this course through all lessons as a fictional database expert.
And it will be exciting, because the MOOC follows a particular learning approach! Get out of the classroom and into the coffee house or the police station. Thereby, in the individual lessons we will always be on the trail of necessary basic knowledge, interactive examples and tasks. Furthermore, you can jump freely between lessons and, therefor, focus on exactly what is interesting for you or what you need.
