Top Trumps

  • Top Trumps can be seen to be similar to a database.
  • Each card is a record.

Fields

One single record

  • Looking at one card, you can see several fields on it.

How many fields are there?

Play a game of Top Trumps with the people next to you.

Task

Create your own 'Top Trumps' database. You may choose any topic to base this on, but you must have attributes. 

For example:

 

You could choose Marvel characters such as Otto Octavius and compare them on attributes like intelligence, their danger levels.

 

Each record must have at least 6 different fields. Be creative.
