After reading through the coursepack, I feel like I come across a bunch of words that have very similar definitions: entity, entity type, field, record, attribute, etc... (although, i DO understand the difference between entity and entity type). If I were presented with a spreadsheet that had each of these words clearly labeled on it, I think that would improve my understanding. It seems like, in this class, it is very important to use the right terms at the right times. For example, if I were to substitue 'entity' for 'entity type' in a sentence, it would completely change the meaning. So, this is my only real concern right now, is the difference between all these terms.
