  9. Program Changes • Class.forName( "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver" ); • connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:customer",“id",“password");

  10. JDBC • DriverManager Class • Class manages JDBC drivers and provides uniform interface for establishing connections to databases • Load the driver by calling : Class.forName(driverClassName); Class.forName(“sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver”); • If the driver can’t be loaded, a ClassNotFoundException is thrown.

  11. Presentation Guidelines • Objectives • Preparation • Delivery • Make presentation interesting!

  12. Objective(s) • Consider: • What are the objectives? • What are the main points you want to make? • Have clear outcomes or results that you are want to achieve. • State up front what it is you are trying to achieve. • If you don't say the one thing you need to say up front, it may never get heard.

  13. Suggestions to structure a presentation • Conclusion/main point first! • Project Background • Justifications, your product and development, and anything that shows how you dealt with issues • Conclusion — Repeat the main point

  14. Delivery • Convince us! • Discuss problems/issues. • Audience interaction is important • Use creativity to make presentation meaningful • PowerPoint is not a requirement • Code is not typically appropriate • Never read from a script.

  15. Move around. Don't stay behind a podium • Get into a place where you can see the screen as well as the audience. • Stand to the left of the screen. People read left to right. • They should start with you and move to the screen. • Audiences want entertainment, enlightenment and education.

  16. Make presentation interesting • Use graphics, handouts, etc. • Use good color contrast • Use large enough fonts so that back row can see your presentation • Present the material in a novel manner.

  17. Keep to the time allowed. • As a rule of thumb, allow 2 minutes for each slide

  18. At the end of your presentation ask if there are any questions • Don't run over!Ever!
