1.I am not sure what do you mean by "monitoring" ?

Do you want to monitor the access to tables ? If yes, you can enable auditing in the database. But, (simple)auditing would not tell what was the data modified ie. what the old data was and what value was modified. If you want to trace the data too, then you may have to setup FGA (Fine-grained auditing).

2. ALTER TABLE ... MONITORING is a feature by which Oracle gathers statistics about a particular table for optimizer to analyze them for performance based issues. You can also use them yourself for manual analysis.

This is a very exhaustive feature. This may not explained in detail in this forum. Please try to gather info from this site or from otn.oracle.com or related sites about Auditing, FGA et al.

Good luck mate !
