The literature and studies cited in this chapter tackle the different concept, understanding, and ideas, generalization or conclusions and different development related to study of the enrollment from the past up to the present and which serves as the researchers guide in developing the project. Those that were also included in this chapter helps in familiarizing information that are relevant and similar to the present study.

Theoretical Background ¶

Enrollment management is “not just an organizational concept: it is both a process and a series of activities that involve the entire campus” ( Hossler & Bean, 1990). Dennis (1998) defines enrollment management as forecasting trends that will affect higher education and utilizing research to plan for the future (Dennis,1998). Second, Dennis lists the following attributes of those who understand enrollment management. Hossler and Bean conclude that there are two goals of enrollment management. “First, to exert more control over the characteristics of the student body and two control the size of the student body” (& Bean, 1990, p.5) Given these two perspectives, one would say that enrollment management is concerned with the attraction and retention of students (Braxton, Vesper, & Hossler, 1995). Donhardt (1995), feels that enrollment management involves the influence of the whole enrollment picture from recruitment through graduation. Bateman and Spruill (1995) found that enrollment management extends to the educational outcomes of attendance. Hossler and Bean (1990) define enrollment management as “efforts to influence the characteristics and the size of enrolled student bodies by directing the activities of the offices of admissions, financial aid, new-student orientation, career planning, retention, and a number of other student affairs areas” (Dennis, 1998). Tinto and Russo (1994) report that the success of enrollment management programs has been only moderately successful. In traditional way of enrolling, manual enrollment system is commonly used as a way of enrolling students to and is continuing to be used nowadays. In manual way of registering and enrolling students they must have to fill up first using ball pen and an enrollment form sheet given by their teachers. By the help of different developers and programmers, they have developed different system about the registration and enrollment process. Computerized, online registration and online enrollment systems that helps the school for having an easier process of managing student information.

Local studies ¶.

Based on the researcher, a web-based enrollment system for Veritas Parochial School (VPS) in Web Based enrollment system, Manila was developed to help its students enroll in a more efficient way without the hassles of waiting long hours in filling out forms, which sometimes become redundant, or to stand in line and pay at the cashier. It is with the Web-based Enrollment System for VPS that this new style of enrollment may be achieved. This new type of system offers its students new options for enrolling at VPS. By logging on to VPS website, one can register and enroll subjects for a school year. With these, all the students are required to fill out certain forms that do not take more than a few minutes to accomplish. The system stores its records in the school database for future references. Confirmation of the transaction made by the students need to be verified, the payment of tuition fees must be made in the schools registrar. The students may also browse the web site of VPS and he can check his current account. He can also refer to the list of the school current tuition fee rates (Pascual & Riceo, 2008) According to Lopez (2005), a registration system helps and provides efficient and reliable services to the students, enrollment personnel and administration. Moreover, this system improved the process of enrollment in terms of searching, retrieving and subject schedules. While in a study conducted by Cayabyab (2007), many problems and difficulties were identified in the existing system of Dagupan City National High School (DCNHS). These major concerns are affecting the efficient enrollment system of students. Security of the students records were found to be at high risk. The current system may fail to protect some important documents. It has also untimely and inefficient report generation. A computerized system for DCNHS shall result to a significant increase in the number of enrollees Network-Based Enrollment system Conde (2007) in his study entitled “Network-bases Enrollment System of Paete National High School cited that the manual process of enrollment and manual handling of information and reports of the students is very laborious one. The proponents developed a network based system enrollment system to the said school to solve the huge amount of task. Garcia (2002) created the “LSPC Enrollment System”, the study can be a great help to persons concerned during the enrollment period, the registrar, instructor of the students as they retrieval necessary information when needed and lessen the burden manually browsing over enrollment slip for record purposes Saayo et.al (2008) developed the system “Network based automated Enrollment and grading system for Morong National High School. Due to increasing population of the institution, and the school currently implementing the manual system, every student spends a lot of time during enrollment period, such as paying their tuition fees and processing the school requirements. Valina et.al (2009), in this work entitled “Network-based student Permanent Record keeping and Enrollment System of Balian National High School”. This System was made to lessen the time and effort exerted by both student and school employees. It is also made to give accurate reports and keep records of every students every students and for easy and fast way of enrollment. Soria (2006), constructed a system entitled “Network-based Computerized inventory System for the supply office o the LSPC main campus. With the advancement of technology, devices and machines were improve , developed and inverted to cope up with the need of new world. There are different systems designed for reliable, efficient and very useful to the user. Cabang et al. (2003) developed the ‘computerized Students Record Monitoring System of Siniloan National High School”, Computerized Student data will be exceedingly helped to the user through continuous management of the School. It could help the registrar for a less effort services in the institutions especially in updating, printing and deleting student’s record. Velasco (2002) Study entitled “Maulawin National High School Student Information System” cited that maintaining students, records manually is a very difficult task and time consuming. In that case, computerization system that can help and handle 17 this data needed to speed up the process of student’s record keeping and to promote and reliability. Cura et al. (2004), Designed system entitled “computerized inventory system of office of the supply in LSPU” is capable of handling voluminous data about the flow of item insurance and reply to the flow of items’ issuance and return in supply office Torres et al. (2002), conducted a study that resolves around the importance computerization of student information. This study was conducted with the hope that it would help minimize time and effort in processing student’s information in Maulawin National High School. The basic feature of this study is after the storage and access of retrieving and updating the data. Alcaira (1999), stated that the using of computer are continue to grow, the need for a more timely information and data processing comes on demand keeping the record of any manual operations need the application, because handling it manually will only be conflicting. Aravia et al. (2002), show the growing importance of computers in the society. The significance of the study revolves the automation of student permanent record keeping. Garnace (1999), developed application software for the computerized information system of a commercial piggery using the concept of the database and implemented it in database. Automation Enrollment System Gumitao (2001), system is designed to provide reports of the list of enrollment per school year, periodical grade of students, and list of new, old and transferees Revalla (2005) created an Automation Enrollment System for the computer Science Department of the Laguna College business and Arts. The study was conceived because of the need to update the current registration system of LCBA, which is done manually. Her study, was based on the special problem of Mr. Bonifacio E. Bacani, Jr. about “Student Record information System”. Kampitan (2000) developed an Enrollment System of Liceo De Victoria that is designed to keep the students records. This is used to provide an effective and faster of providing information of the student and also the accounting purposes’ Liceo De Victoria Enrollment was developed and implement using relational database and designed in clipper 5.3. Earlier, Encila (1999) Introduced the Enrollment System for the computer Science Department of LCBA and traders, designed of enrollment System is advantageous to the school because it speed up the process and with only a minimum amount of power and resources. Cacao (2002), designed the “Morning Star Montessori School incorporated form 137implemented in Fox Base. Solomon (2002), developed Enrollment and Record keeping System, to know how to read sign the data that is used to be kept the record files of students and also that, it could be mange more efficiently in computer with his project. Quiver (2001), developed a program using database III which capable of retrieving, access in manipulating of data in easy way. A computerized system to minimized the lost of record and burden of work was designed by Pajarillo in 2002. Monsalve and Ilagan (2005), developed a program and designed using Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 and Microsoft access. The system is capable of receiving access, searching items, providing adequate information and data gathering. IPizzara and Veridiano (2001), this system was done using Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0. This conducted system goes along the trend of computerization to be in the field of competitiveness and survive to the complicated works. Relayo (1999) this study will assist the researcher regarding to the use of database and Visual Basic. This system have been designed in order to speed up the access and retrieval information and to lessen manual effort involve in the library routine of transaction. Magalang (2003), he proposed this to developed software that will help the management of the school “lyceum’ in giving good service to its student in speeding of the process involve in monitoring account acquired during the enrollment & other payment transaction. Lazaro (2004), this study entitled “Liceo de Los Banos record monitoring system” password was created for the protection and was designed to be user-friendly by only authorized persons and to ensure security of data basic information. Lumbers (2002), stated in her study entitled “a systematic enrollment process using database system in Saint John academy. Calamba, Laguna” that the application of database system to the enrollment process will greatly increase its efficiency; automation of enrollment process will upgrade the quality of the services provided for the qualified enrollees. Online enrollment system An Online Registration System was proposed to replace the manual enrollment system of Cavite Maritime Institute in order to advance an organized flow of transaction and an ease of work concerned on how the manual enrollment performs throughout the institution’s operations. The numerous transactions that the manual system covers, such as updating and adding student records, generating the advising and assessment slips, and the like considering the manual operating system to be inefficient for the need of the institution. Since the study involves proper record handling, tracing the constraints and evaluation of the manual system is essential (Bacala and Reano, 2009). In educational institutions like Harvent School in Dagupan City, Composed of elementary and high school level. The school puts premium to its registration. The enrollment process is the initial stage in gathering bonafide fide and accurate student information necessary to establish student permanent records. A registration and billing system is needed by the institution to address the stated situation. The study has been made to help Harvent School gather fast and deliver accurate information (Calabozo & Fernandez, 2006) Online enrollment system is utilized today by many universities to facilitate the enrollment of their students into classes every semester (Gaton, 2012). The system allows students to choose courses they want to take with the available class schedules. This allows students to make up their time schedules for different class courses without time schedule conflicts. After the allotted enrollment period, the system runs and assigns slots to students. With the Online Registration System, students could log in, check their schedule, and set desired changes and pay online without having to stand in a line and rushing to meet deadlines to accomplish all the transactions required for enrollment (Ella, 2012). The Online Registration System is a method designed to perform the process involved in registration, advising, assessments, and payments of students as well as scheduling of classes in any educational institution. According to Aquino (2005), importance of computer application is increasing day by day. In the latest decades of the millennium winning organizations are those which are willing to integrate business strategy and information technology in plying their respective trades. The use of information technology results for them to be able to develop products fast and make decisions fast, ability to have fluid organization structures, able to cope with the demanding work force and external environment by the rapid development of innovative approaches, and lastly, using information system confirms the company’s vision and mission. Schools use information systems in the way of implementing an enrollment system. This results for them to attract enrollees and earn an income. Enrollees are attracted because the use of the said system makes the transactions faster and easier. Alcuaz (1988) stated that the use of computer can give competitive advantage and improve profitability. Computer helps to increase the productivity of people. This is true whether they are working alone or working with others within a formal organization such as business corporations. As said by Adrian(2011), “Lack of enrollment system in schools can lead to chaos and troubles.” Students will be confused on what they should do to be able to enroll that is why such systems is extremely useful in the way that it gives an ease on working on enrollment processes. Enrollment is very useful in retrieving vital information of the students. Without it can lead difficulty both for the administration of school and student in enrollment processes Many countries today, especially the developing nations are challenged by the rapid technological changes. This has radically changed the living and working styles of the entire society. This transformation has been driven partly by rapid technological innovation. While in the 20th century, people saw the rise of the industrial revolution with steam-powered machines intensifying and expanding human productive power, the 21st century was characterized by the birth of machine-powered flight and the emergence of broadcasting and computer technologies that extend the reach of human creativity even more and made new ways possible by which humans could live and work together (Tinio, 2002). The transformation of manual enrollment transaction to automate and now into a web-based automation is one example of what was driven partly by the rapid technological innovation. Any ways just to make work easier and faster like enrollment transactions is possible with the emergence of computer technologies. Technology innovation had influenced man’s work from data processing, business transaction, research, planning, monitoring and even in medical operation on human anatomy are now entrusted to computer technology. Web applications are popular due to ubiquity of its applications. The ability to update and maintain web applications without distributing and installing software on potentially thousands of client computers are key reasons for its popularity. A significant advantage of building web applications to support a standard browser feature is the ability to perform as specified, regardless of the operating system installed on a given client (Bacala &Reanno, 2009). Web-based enrollment system A web-based enrollment system has features that meet most of academic institutions system’s needs and requirements. This includes standardized modules for student registration, enrollment, grade management, and other modules that are deemed necessary to operate a school. Based on the researcher, a web-based enrollment system for Veritas Parochial School (VPS) in Web Based enrollment system, Manila was developed to help its students enroll in a more efficient way without the hassles of waiting long hours in filling out forms, which sometimes become redundant, or to stand in line and pay at the cashier. It is with the Web-based Enrollment System for VPS that this new style of enrollment may be achieved. This new type of system offers its students new options for enrolling at VPS.

Confirmation of the transaction made by the students need to be verified, the payment of tuition fees must be made in the schools registrar. The students may also browse the web site of VPS and he can check his current account. He can also refer to the list of the school current tuition fee rates (Pascual & Riceo, 2008)

This study was conducted with the hope that it would help minimize time and effort in processing student’s information in Maulawin National High School. The basic feature of this study is after the storage and access of retrieving and updating the data. According to Jennifer Rowley (2005), information systems are a tool to support information management. Information systems are increasingly being used in organizations with the objective of providing competitive advantage. The information systems used by organizations can be grouped into different types such as transaction processing system, management information system, decision support system, executive information system, expert systems and office information system. Information Technology has heralded the advent of the information society. The information society may be a “virtual society”. The concepts of the electronic classroom, the electronic office and electronic library have been explored. Information system poses a number of issues on society in general, including: changing employment patterns, archiving, and bibliographic control, security and data protection, intellectual property, marketplace issues and access. An registration system is basically included in one of the classification of information system that is stated by the author, thus it serves as a tool to support information management with regards to the student data, enrollment fees information and other with a connection to the enrollment process. Every school gain competitive advantage of having this system for they will have the capacity on handling important information at ease and with security. The iterative implementation approach is a theory that eliminates problems of using a waterfall study. This is invented to avoid a linear and sequential development of study. The overall functionality of the system is broken down into feature sets. These features sets often based upon use cases from the analysis stage, containing group of individual features that are related, typically by a functional area (Stephen McHenry, 2010) Adopting the theory of Stephen McHenry which is known as the iterative implementation covers the breakdown of overall functionality of the system to a what he called feature set and those feature sets represents different process involve in an enrollment system. It helps locate what feature an enrollment system will have since that this kind of systems does many activities and processes. As said by Dunn and Scott (2005), science and technology is the root of emerging innovations in this world. For many years now, a person in this field of expertise does not stop to reshape the landscape of today’s business world. Enrollment system has made huge impact into the school arena. It is a system that is built on innovative program strategies. It is a system that will help both the enrollment personnel-in-charge and the students to easily process the enrollment at a lesser time. Distinct from traditional enrollment, LAN enrollment system process large assortment of student records and provides efficient and consistent information services. As stated by Holmes (2006), “The Internet is neither an extraordinary communication tool nor revolutionary. It simply represents the current stage in the development of human capabilities through written language, which itself derived from the spoken form.” That statement only shows that advancement in modern technology is at their highest peak. Nowadays, Web-based applications are widely used due to their ubiquity. Web-based enrollment system is currently emerging on markets for they are offering transaction convenience and service efficiency through the use of Internet. This system becomes a powerful tool in dealing with information management regarding enrollment transactions. According to Forman (2007), continuing innovation in technologies can lead to organizational changes that range from improvement of day to day operation and for easy access it provides for the end users. Many schools today have adapted this innovation in offering of their services which is parallel with the concept of Tinn (2001), stated that the computerization responded to the call the office or any workplace to help their daily operation. Malolos et.al (2002) stated that the study of automation is important in the sense time it minimizes the time and effort normally exerted in manual process. While Janes (2001) stated that computers are extremely reliable device and very powerful calculators with some great accessories applications like word processing problem for all of business activities, regardless of size, computers have three advantages over other type of office equipment that process information because computer are faster, more accurate more economical. Reyes (2005) task would be time consuming to accomplish manually and more practical with the aid of computers field in cabinet. According to Flores (2002), the automation is described simply as the substitution of machine control of human. Dioso (2001) stated that computer assist careful intelligent planning, organizing, actuating and controlling .This maybe observed from the past that they monitor production activities, solve scientific problem and help arrive in tentative answer to a multitude of involved conditions. Ralph M. Stair (1999) emphasized that the development of technology through the years have enabled us to do more with less effort. From the orientation of the light bulb to the industrial revolution and beyond, we have continuously tried to in a more efficient means of doing tasks. Lewis (2002) stated that the reason for using computers vary from person to person. Some of the computers in business are to perform accuracy, to be as productivity, to decrease bottle necks or hassles to alter cash flows or to simplify elevate your status. Gold Chager et al (2003) said that computer as a device for processing information knew computer plays a significant role in their lives, but few are aware of just how pervasive role is. Mane (2000) mentioned that the creation of the computer made the easier to accomplish task than by doing it manually, to have the direct access on straightforward answer just monitoring record where in the needs of computer make possible for everyone to get data in a particular need. We can consider that the computer is necessary and it is a productive tool for individual. Gurewich (1999) stated that the database system makes the work faster for every institution. For the mere fact that instead of doing things manually, with the use of computer technology everything is done faster. Computer- Based Enrollment system Halili, M.C.N. (2004) that man’s actions are just involuntary movements especially when time allow to plan his next action. These responses pass through the process of reasoning and analysis. Huntchinson et.al (2001) stated that file is a collection of related records. Examples are the entire student’s courses card for Anthropology 101 or the transcript of all courses in the register’s office. Bryan (2006) emphasized the information system is a set of people, procedures and resources that collects, transforms and disseminates information in an organization to do’s ends rely on many types of information system (IS). They might include simple manual information system and informal system and also computer based information system that uses hardware, software telecommunication and other forms of information technology (IT). Sander (2002) computers are an intelligence amplifier that can free human to use their time effectively. Because a computer is a fast and accurate electronic symbol or data manipulating system that design automatically accept and store input data process and procedure output results under the direction of the stored program or instruction. Tows and (2005), stated that database is instructed collection of data. The data may be about people, product events in short, any type of information is to manage the collection of data for reporting and making decision. Adamski (2007), give some advantages of database processing first economy of scale getting more information from some amount of data, sharing data balancing conflicting requirement, enforcement of standard, controlled redundancy consisting integrity security ,flexibility and responsiveness ,increase programmers productivity, improve program maintenance and data independence Perkins (1999) stated that computer has an impressive impact upon business, governmental organization; bank and all sorts of organization and on how they are operate and manage. Alcaria (2004) explained that the use of computer are continue to grow, the need for a more timely information and data processing comes on demand keeping the records of any manual operations need the application of computer because handling it manually will only be conflicting. Kroenke (2002) in the early 1970’s database processing was considered an esoteric subject of interest only to the longest corporation with the largest computer. Information system-Database System Concept Today, database processing is becoming an information system standard. Silberschatz (2006) in his book “” the goal of database system is to simplify and facilitate access to data.In relation to Ahitud et.al (2007) mentioned that information system are more collection of hardware, software and people. They should be constructed to fit the organization’s strategy and structure so that it could easily be adapted to the information they needed. Asumbra (2002) Access to information is the best way to. In line with technology access to information within fingertips is the easier way to be equipped in the future. While Hammer (2003), said that computer could eliminate the need for copying and rearranging information, which was entered into system. They also perform mathematical computation; in short computer can eliminate most of the paper works. Microsoft Corporation (2002), explained that computer network are collection of computer and intelligent peripheral equipment that are inter connected by telephone lines, micro wave relays and other high-speed communication links of the purpose of exchanging data and sharing equipment. Cognos-based enrollment management system Southern California Community College Long Beach City College has gone live with a Cognos-based enrollment management system that was designed by Irvine, CA-based professional services firm e2e Analytic. Prior to installing the new system, LBCC, which has two main campuses and multiple satellites that support nine schools and 34 departments, handled its enrollment via manual spread sheets. With no reporting, continuity, or standard practices, and with lengthy error corrections, the school’s enrollment management budgeting and planning took up to three months to compile, consolidate, and implement (Koft 2007) The study on problems regarding on school such as the Long Beach City College is an aid for the proponents to have the idea on formulating solutions on transferring manual enrollment transactions to an automated or computerized one. According to the coordinator of Admission Support of Kerian Greenaway, the system known as the Edith Cowan University Web Enrollment System (ECUWES) had replaced the traditional hard copy system of enrollment. The system offers immediacy and convenience of course enrollment via the internet. The said university in Australia is currently enrolling more than 5,000 new students with easier transactions cause of their online enrollment system. In the local setting, academic institutions both the private and government schools are shifting from manual to computerized system including student registration. This is accomplished either on an intranet or internet-based environment. The desire to overcome these problems and difficulties has led the acceptance of advanced technology. It includes Local Area Network of computers, CD ROM and powerful processor. These technologies led to the development of information databases that provides simple and prompt retrieval of information through networking, In Local Area Network Enrollment System (LANES), the problems on admission and evaluation of academic records, subject reservation, assessment and payment of fees and issuance of class cards are besieged. Likewise, searching of records is effective due to its major key that is being used in retrieval of records. A Local Area Network Enrollment System (LANES) is a broad system. It is a combination of different function areas such as databases, searching, retrieval, and update of student records, checking of students’ schedule, computation of fees. (Dzubeck, Frank, 2003) Inspired by the advancement of modern technology and the problems regarding enrollment transactions the proponents have come up with an online enrollment system exclusively for school with many enrollees. Several factors are considered in designing the proposed system. First is the tedious task of filling out application forms and inaccuracies of information provided by the students that cause delay on the enrollment process. Other is that were problems on giving and announcing schedules of enrollees and cause for them to be late at their very first class. The researchers gathered data necessary in the enrollment system for the success of the study in providing benefit for the employees and students so they can have access and have the ability to manage information directly and conveniently. A software development and IT service firm implemented its catalyst in Governor Andres Pascual College was integrated web platform to provide content management, transaction processing, marketing, and interactive community function to the two rice schools. Catalyst deliver on the Jones school’s two primary criteria for selecting a web-based platform: simplifying content management; and enabling user response to information such as event RSVP and course registration. The content management tools lets the Jones school staff edit, update or add to the volume of curriculum and event information without calling for technical assistance. They simply cut and paste document into the content management system audit for consistency and publish to the web. The school’s diverse audiences, which include MBA’s executive Mb As, executive education participants, and alumni, now receives prompt notification of news and events, and can RSVP for event or register online for Executive Education courses.

Synthesis ¶

Similarities ¶.

With the above mention studies, Enrollment system of Veritas Parochial School used web-based and databases to stores their records. Students will logging on website, register and fill out certain forms. Liceo De Victoria Enrollment was developed and implements using relational databases. As for Quiver (2001), who also developed a program using database III which capable of retrieving, access in manipulating of data in easy way. The study of Lumber (2002), which is all about the systematic enrollment process using database in Saint John Academy, helps enrollment process increase its efficiency. Bacala & Reanno (2009), in their study that tells the significant advantage of building web applications to support a standard browser feature is the ability to perform as specified. With Stephen McHenry (2010),using WAMP(Windows Apache MySQL PHP is used to develop dynamic web sites with apache server, PHP5 script languages and database of MYSQL release 5. The studies support the use of applications using the web so that students can access the websites. The researchers used a database to increase the efficiency of registration procedures. They also used it for purposes such as storing records or information of students and access in manipulating data in an easy way. Using WAMP server and PHP languages is one way for them to develop their system.

Differences ¶

According to Ella (2012), the ideas and concept where the students will check their schedule, view subjects and teachers and set desired changes and pay online. While Gaton (2012), the system allows students to choose courses they want to take with the available class schedules. This allows students to make up their time schedules for different class courses without time schedule conflicts. After the allotted enrollment period, the system runs and assigns slots to students. Both concept and ideas does not cover the researchers system in terms of online payments or computation of student’s grades, class scheduling, and assessment of fees.

Enrollment System Documentation Chapter 2 : Background of the Study

Ilog is said to be the oldest town in Negros and once the capital of the province. This leads up to believe that Ilog must be the first place in Negros to have a Catholic School. As the poet expressed it – the old order changed yielding place to now many times since these days nearly four hundred years ago but Ilog still has a Catholic School.

This is the town’s third Catholic School. The latter was under the supervision of the pre- revolution Spanish and Filipino priest and ended with arrival of the Americans. The second was opened about twenty years later by the great Mill Hill father who did so much hard work both in Negros and Panay. Rev. Father Mathias Bonin was the great educator in Ilog in these days. He had a boarding school for Bonin Negros sent their sons in his School. It was maliciously burned and two hundred boys were sent home .(Computerized Enrollment System Thesis Project Chapter 2)

Ilog Catholic High School is still using the manual process of enrollment and they notice that the use of manual process of enrollment in the institution gives them difficulties like incomplete information that student fill up the registration form, unsecured storage of records of the students and the time they consumed in the processing of enrollment. As researchers, this needs to have a solution to overpass this kind of difficulties during enrollment period in the school.

Enrollment System Documentation Chapter 2 : Related System

Within this chapter ( Enrollment System Documentation Chapter 2 ), the researchers present the related literatures and systems to the proposed system, with this, the researchers will understand the past studies for them to develop a more efficient and effective system to the institution.

Information System

Information systems are used in organizations with the impartial of providing ruthless advantage. The information system used by organization can be grouped into different types such as schedule viewing system, management information system, settlement support system, executive information system, expert systems and office information system.( Computerized Enrollment System Thesis Project Chapter 2)

Information system is used in companies and schools to provide information about the school faculty and company employees. A schedule system helps and provides efficient and reliable services to the students, enrollment personnel and administration. Furthermore, this system improved the process of searching of rooms and subject schedules.

According to Graysail (2010), for the past several years, the official of the faculty senate have struggled with defining teaching loads for the purposes of determining overload situation and staffing allocations. Several ad hoc committees have looked into the matter, without commitment.

The core functionality of the system allows to designate faculty and staff to set schedule of availability and designate individuals enter the system and schedule appointments as needed of the faculty and staff. Software with automatic scheduling for teachers’ workload can be easily access by faculty members to be handy to everyone.

Enrollment System Introduction

Computer technology has opened a new chapter in technical advancements, allowing computers to become a part of daily life. Computers make everyone’s lives easier, allowing them to live better lives. At work, school, and at home, computers are ubiquitous. Teaching and learning, data processing, record keeping, and the educational system’s enrollment system have all benefited from technology.

Enrollment systems are used to keep track of a student’s data. A well-built one will lighten the load on those who are generally responsible for all of the work. The enrollment mechanism comes in handy when the school has to get crucial information from a student. The school can track the standings of pupils using the enrolling system. A school’s manual enrollment approach might result in erroneous student performance evaluations, lost student data, inaccurate reporting, and sluggish enrollment processing. Students will be perplexed as to what they should do and how they should go about enrolling. It is incredibly important in the school because it simplifies the enrollment process.

In order to enroll students, the School follows the traditional method. A total of 3,000 students are enrolled in four (4) year levels. The school’s population grows every year, therefore the manual enrollment and student record-keeping system takes up too much time for the teachers or enrolling officer.

The researchers’ goal in this study is to create a fast, accurate, and dependable computer-based enrollment system for the School’s administration, faculty, and staff that will speed up the enrollment process, facilitate and secure students’ records, reduce the enrolling officer’s effort in updating students’ information, provide a reliable record-keeping facility, and provide accurate enrolling information.

Login/logout services, an administrative module, a registrar module, a cashier module, database maintenance, and a help assistant are all included in the proposed system.

Project Context

The school’s current system, such as the enrolling system and record keeping, is done manually. The manual system has been in place from the beginning of the school’s functioning.

During the enrolling period, students will visit the admissions office and get any necessary enrollment requirements. The evaluator will then assess the students’ grades in order to determine which subjects they should take in the current school year and their existing academic standing. The assessor will generate a list of subjects that the students are needed to take. Students will pay their PTA fee and other costs to the cashier after receiving the list. The cashier will provide the students receipts to prove that they had previously paid. The person in charge will prepare a summary of student enrollment at the end of the enrollment period.

Because the enrolling officer must search and locate the student’s records in the filing cabinet, the manual updating of the student’s records slows down the admission process. Delays in student evaluations due to the enrolling officer’s need to review past grades and the fact that some of the student’s records are misplaced. Due to disorganized student data, tallying subjects takes time as well.

As a result of these factors, the researchers chose to design and construct a computerized enrollment system that is quick, accurate, dependable, and simple to use. The planned enrollment mechanism is a positive move in the right direction for the institution. By offering quick and easy access to information, this might be a huge benefit to those who are juggling a lot of chores throughout the enrollment time.

Purpose and Description

This capstone project’s major goal is to create a computer-based enrollment system that is quick, accurate, dependable, and simple to use. The researchers will design and construct a capstone project titled “Computerized Enrollment System” for the School’s administration, instructors, staff, and students.

The proposed project will use computer-based software to replace the school’s present manual enrollment system, which will allow authorized users to speed up the enrolling process, provide updated, secure, and easy-to-access student records, and provide accurate reports.

Login/logout services, administrator’s module, registrar’s module, enrollment/cashier module, database maintenance, and help assistant will be among the system’s features.

The proposed system’s Log-in/Log-out Services feature will require allowed users to input their user ID and password in order to access their user account in the administrator’s module, registrar’s module, and enrollment/cashier module.

The school administrator can control sections, year levels, school years (set active school years – used in current enrollment), subjects, faculty, and staff in the Administrator’s Module.

The Registrar’s Module allows the personnel of the registrar’s office to manage student credentials, view a list of enrolled students, view student records, and enter grades.

The Enrollment/Cashier Module gives the cashier access to enrollment data, enrolled student complete details, payment records, fee management, and the student ledger.

Database maintenance is one of the system’s functions that allows administrators to update students’ records, manage data and transaction log files, and backup the system.

The Help Assistant is a program that provides instructions on how to utilize the system.

The following outputs are possible from the proposed project: a user’s log report, a list of enrolled students, enrollment summary reports, payments and collectibles, and a student ledger.

Objective of the Study

The study’s major objective is to create a computerized enrollment system for the school that will allow for quick, accurate, and simple enrolling and record keeping.

The following are the researchers’ precise goals in conducting this study:

  • To make updating a student’s record as easy as possible for the teacher-in-charge or the enrolling officer.
  • To expedite the enrollment process at all levels of the school year.
  • To create a database for student files that would allow enrolling officers to quickly search, locate, and update information.

Scope and Limitations of the Study

This capstone project will focus only on the school’s computerized enrollment system and record keeping. The researchers will concentrate on collecting relevant data, such as student information, calculating appropriate payments, handling student grades, making reports, and generating student credentials.

The proposed system’s database management component will focus on adding and changing student records, grades, maintaining and managing user table entries and user logs, and monitoring changes made by allowed users in the system.

The proposed project will be built on a client-server architecture and will be connected over a local area network (LAN). This is not available over the Internet, and only the administrator with access to the Administrator’s Module has complete access to all of the system’s functions.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE/SYSTEM

This chapter includes a review of related literature and studies, as well as the technical backdrop on which the project’s technicality, details of the technologies to be used, and the project’s relevance will be discussed.

REVIEW OF RELATED BOOKS AND SYSTEMS

Computerized Enrollment System

According to Studymode.com (2012), electronic enrollment systems are increasingly replacing what we used to call “paperless” transactions and making any transaction easier and faster. It also tends to reduce the amount of manpower and human effort required to conduct any enrollment transaction. ( http://www.studymode.com/essays/Computerized-Enrollment-Thesis-927388.html )

Record Keeping

Records, according to Chifwepa (2009), have two purposes. Not only do they present a clear image of what is available and what is necessary for a school, but they also justify certain needs. They also help to extend the memory of individuals and/or organizations, allowing them to carry on their traditions and successes to future generations. Because of its critical role in the effective creation and gathering of information, record keeping is critical to the overall information cycle of an educational institution. Because schools create some of the most important data, the need of establishing a rigorous record-keeping culture at that level cannot be overstated. (http://www.adeanet..org/adeaPortal)

Importance of Record Keeping

Adebowale and Osuji (2008) researched the record-keeping methods of elementary school teachers in a number of local government regions in Nigeria’s Ondo state. Data was obtained using a questionnaire titled “Questionnaire on Record-Keeping Practices of Primary School Teachers,” and descriptive statistics were used to evaluate the results. The findings revealed that, while the teachers were aware with some record-keeping principles, they were not proficient in the majority of operational procedures and did not display knowledge of how to use record-keeping to enhance teaching and learning activities. There was no equipment available that could be utilized to keep records safe. The researchers recommend that instructors receive frequent in-service training in record keeping and retrieval, recognizing the relevance of record keeping in the successful implementation of the country’s Universal Basic Education program. Teacher preparation programs should also incorporate the development of record-keeping abilities. ( https://www4.nau.edu/cee/jep/journals.aspx?id=183)

Student Information System

The above-mentioned concepts on computerization of enrollment systems and record keeping are relevant to the current project because they serve as a foundation for the development of an enrollment system for the School that will reduce the time and effort expended by staff in updating student records and maintaining records. The concepts also allude to aspects of the current study, such as the users’ module and database maintenance, which will be implemented into the proposed system by the developers.

The researchers based their formulation of the general objectives and important factors to consider in designing the features that should be included in the development of the proposed enrollment system on the concept of record keeping, its importance, and its fundamental role in the process of efficient information production and collection.

The associated studies on records and information management, as well as record keeping techniques, provide details and evidence to help researchers build and construct a successful enrollment and record keeping tool.

TECHNICAL BACKGROUND

The School’s current enrolling system is done manually. The school lacks technology that is important and required for a quick and easy enrollment procedure, record keeping, and report generating.

The school will need to purchase computer units, a machine to print results, and set up Local Area Network access in order to implement the suggested system.

Using the computerized enrollment system and utilizing technology in data processing, record keeping, and the enrolling system will offer the school with an efficient means of processing information and maintaining records.

The suggested system will be placed on a primary server and may include a backup server in the event that the primary server fails. The operating system for the server will be Microsoft Server 2003 Enterprise Edition, which will run programs such as networking and databases. To protect the main server and other PCs from viruses, a software firewall must be installed.

The Modified Waterfall Model will be used by the researchers in the creation of the new software.

CHAPTER III

METHODOLOGY

The researchers’ approach and technique for performing the study, the system development procedure, and the results and discussion are all covered in this chapter.

The researchers will undertake this capstone project using a variety of data collection approaches as well as a variety of analytical tools to aid and justify the study’s conduct. Researchers will be able to discover the challenges that the school’s administration and personnel face in the current system using data collection approaches. Interviewing, observation, and brainstorming are examples of analytical tools. The information gathered will be examined and used as a foundation for the system’s design and development.

An interview is a conversation between two people (the interviewer and the interviewee) in which the interviewer asks the interviewee questions in order to gain information. Observation is either a living being’s action, such as a human’s, in which they receive knowledge of the outside world through their senses or a scientific instrument’s recording of data. Any data collected during this action may alternatively be referred to as “data.” An observation can also refer to how or when you look at something. Brainstorming is a technique for gathering as many ideas from a group of people as feasible. Typically used to identify potential answers to problems, clarify details of opportunities, and find remedies to existing system difficulties.

The researchers will develop the system using the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) method. As indicated in Figure 1, the SDLC approach is used in the study and design of the system.

Modified-Waterfall-Approach-Model-of-Enrollment-System

The researchers will employ the Modified Waterfall Model in constructing the Computerized Enrollment System, which is divided into numerous phases, as shown in Figure 1. The following are some of them:

Requirement analysis is a term that refers to the process of determining what The researchers will investigate how the system operates, as well as the user’s preferences, needs, and requirements, before recommending a remedy. To determine system requirements, the researchers will interview the school administrator, registrar, and finance department staff. The researchers will assess the data and conduct research on related literature and studies after the interview. It also include creating estimates for the work to be done, generating the necessary commitments, defining the work plan, and finalizing the project plan.

Design of systems and software. The system will be designed in this phase depending on the system’s requirements. The researchers will create the database model structure, connect the database tables, create data forms, and prepare the project presentation. A review of the system’s design and functionality will be carried out. The programmer will evaluate and change the design of the system’s tables and forms, as well as test the system’s functionality. The data flow in the system will be represented using a Data Flow Diagram (DFD). The system’s data model will be an entity relationship diagram (ERD). The programmer will write the source code for the system that will be built.

Testing. This phase entails reviewing a system or application in order to determine whether it fits all of the client’s requirements and to identify any faults. To assess if it will work according to the specification, requirements such as software functions and features were checked. This step verifies that the created system is complete and functional, assesses whether the software performs all functions after integration with the existing operating environment, and assesses the software’s overall dependability and quality.

Implementation. The researchers will do a dry-run of the system and train the system’s intended users during this phase. Users of the system will examine if the system’s recommended features and suggestions are implemented.

Maintenance and operation. T his phase ensures that the information system is completely functioning and performing at its best until it reaches the end of its useful life. Management of changes to the system to support end users, monitoring of system performance, performance of needed security actions such as backups, and continuance of end user assistance are all part of the Operations and Maintenance Phase.

This phase will also offer users with the documentation and training they need to efficiently use the system. Although data conversion will only take place once, user documentation will be required. The product will be deployed on the hardware that will be utilized in the production environment (on live systems). Deployment necessitates meticulous planning. Initial data will be loaded and user training will take place once the product has been deployed.

Requirements Analysis and Documentation

The suggested solution is called “Computerized Enrolling,” and it is a computer program that allows authorized users to automate the school’s enrollment system and record-keeping. Users will be able to discover and retrieve necessary student information and credentials, as well as compile an enrollment summary report, using the program.

The following aims and objectives must be met in order for the software design and development to be completed:

  • To create a database for student files that would allow enrollment officers to readily update information.
  • Enrollment and record-keeping software that is completely available over the school’s Local Area Network (LAN).
  • To produce reports that are quick, dependable, and accurate.

The advent of computer technology has opened a new chapter in technological advances which makes computers become part of everyday life. Computers make all lives easier so that all can live good lives. Computers are everywhere at work, at school, and at home. The educational system has taken advantage of the technology in teaching and learning, processing data, record keeping, and in their enrollment system.

Enrollment systems are used in recording a student’s information. A well built one will reduce the load on the people that normally have to-do all the work. Enrollment system is useful especially when the school retrieves the important information from the student. In the enrollment system, the school can trace what are the standings of the students. The manual enrollment system in a school can lead to inaccurate evaluation of student performance, loss of student records, inaccurate reports, and slow enrollment processing. Students will be confused on what they should do and how they will do to be able to enroll. It is extremely useful in the school in a way of making the processes of enrolling much easy.

The School is using the traditional way in their enrollment process. There are Three Thousand students enrolled in four (4) year levels. The population of the school increases every year such that the manual system of enrolment and student record keeping are consuming too much time to the teachers or enrolling officer.

In this study, the researchers aim to develop a fast, accurate and reliable computer-based enrollment system for the administration, faculty and staff of School that will speed up the enrollment process, facilitate and secure students’ record, minimize the effort exerted by the enrolling officer in updating students information, provide reliable record keeping facility, and provide accurate enrollment summary report.

The proposed system includes important features such as login/logout services, administration’s module, registrar’s module, cashier’s module, database maintenance, and help assistant.

The present system of the school is done manually such as the enrollment system, and record keeping. From the start of the school’s operation, they use the manual system.

During the enrollment period, students will go to the admission office and for requirements needed for the enrollment. The evaluator will then evaluate student’s grades in order to know what subjects are to be taken in the current school year and to know their status. A list of subjects that the students are required to take will be prepared by the evaluator. After getting the list, students will pay to the cashier for their PTA fee and other fees. The cashier will issue receipts to the students in order to clarify that the students had already paid. At the end of the enrollment period a summary of student’s enrollment will be prepared by the person in charge.

The manual updating of the student’s records slows down the admission process because the enrolling officer takes time to search and locate the records of the student in the filing cabinet. Delays in the evaluation of students because the enrolling officer takes time to check student’s previous grades and some of the student’s records are misplaced. Tallying of subjects also takes time because of non-organized student’s files.

For these reasons, the researchers were challenged and have decided to design and develop a computerized enrollment system that is fast, accurate, reliable, and easy to use. The proposed enrollment system is a good step for the school. This could be a great help to the people who are handling many tasks during the enrollment period by providing fast and easier access to information.

The main purpose of this capstone project is to develop a computer-based enrollment system that is fast, accurate, reliable, and easy to use. The proposed capstone project entitled “Computerized Enrollment System” will be designed and developed by the researchers for the administrators, faculty, staff, and students of School.

The proposed project will replace the manual process of the school’s existing manual enrollment system and will use computer based software that enables authorized users to speed up the enrollment process, provide an updated, secured and easy to access student records, and generate accurate reports.

The features of the system will focus on: login/logout services, administrator’s module, registrar’s module, enrolment/cashier module, database maintenance, and help assistant.

Log-in/Log-out Services , refers to one of the features of the proposed system that will require authorized users to enter their user ID and password to be able to access their user account in the administrator’s module, registrar’s module, and enrolment/cashier module.

Administrator’s Module , allows the school administrator to manage sections, year level, school year (set active school year – used in current enrollment), subjects, faculty and staff.

Registrar’s Module , allows the registrar office staff to manage students credentials, view list of enrolled students, view student records and input grades.

Enrolment/Cashier Module, allows the cashier to view enrollment statistics, enrolled student complete details, record payments, manage fees and student ledger.

Database Maintenance, refers to one of the features of the system wherein the administrator can update students’ records, manage data and transaction log files, and backup the system.

Help Assistant , which contains instructions on how to use the system.

The proposed project can generate the following outputs, these are: user’s log report, list of enrolled students, enrollment summary reports, payments and collectibles, and student ledger.

The proposed project offers several benefits for the school administration, office staff and the student which include the following: admission officer can easily update student record, evaluate students, provides list of student subjects, record payments, provides list of collectibles, and manage credentials such as Form 137.

This project will provide an enrolment database for the school. It will store student’s record such as student’s name, year, section, schedule, and school fees.

It may also be use by the finance department of the school for their school fees. The database is designed for use by staff and other authorized user in the registrar office to enable them to easily produce information required by the different people in the school. The database system will make the enrolment and collection of fees for the school easy and fast.

The main objective of the study is to develop a computerized enrollment system for School that would provide fast, accurate, and easy to use enrollment and record keeping system.

The specific objectives of the researchers in conducting this study are the following:

  • To minimize the effort of the teacher-in-charge or the enrolling officer in updating student’s record.
  • To speed up the enrollment process in all year levels.
  • To provide a database for student’s files so that the enrolling officers would easily search, locate, and update records.

This capstone project will be limited only on the computerized enrollment system and record keeping of the school. The researchers will focused in gathering relevant data such as data of students, computation of necessary fees, handling of student grades, preparing reports, and generate student’s credentials.

The database maintenance feature of the proposed system will focus on adding, and editing students’ records, students’ grades, maintaining and managing table entries of users and user’s log; and monitoring of the changes done by authorized users in the system.

The proposed project will be implemented using client-server architecture and will employ the Local Area Network (LAN) connectivity. This is not accessible through the World Wide Web and only the administrator who has access to the Administrator’s Module has the full access of the different features of the system.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE/SYSTEM

This chapter presents the review of the related literature and studies and the technical background of which will discuss the technicality of the project, details of the technologies to be used and the relevance of the project.

  REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE/SYSTEMS

Computerized Enrollment System

According to Studymode.com (2012) computerized enrollment system tends to replace what we called “Paper Less” transaction and also it will make any transaction easier and faster. Also it tends to lessen manpower and human efforts in terms of processing any transaction in regards with enrollment transaction.

( http://www.studymode.com/essays/Computerized-Enrollment-Thesis-927388.html )

Record Keeping

According to Chifwepa (2009) records have a dual function. Not only do they enable a school to have a clear picture of what is available and what is required, but they also provide justification of certain needs. Furthermore, they serve to extend the memory by which persons and/or organizations can pass their cultures and achievements on to future generations. Record keeping is vital to an education system’s information cycle as a whole, because of its fundamental role in the process of efficient information production and collection. Since some of the most crucial information is produced at the school level, the importance of creating a systematic record-keeping culture at that level cannot be stressed enough. ( http://www.adeanet..org/adeaPortal )

Importance of Record Keeping

In the study conducted by Adebowale and Osuji (2008) it investigated the record keeping practices of primary school teachers in selected local government areas in Ondo state of Nigeria. Data were collected with a questionnaire titled “Questionnaire on Record Keeping Practices of Primary School Teachers” and data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings showed that although the teachers were familiar with some principles of record keeping they were not proficient in most of the operational procedures and did not demonstrate the knowledge of using record keeping to further the development of teaching and learning activities. Equipments that could be used for safe keeping of records were not available. Recognizing the importance of record keeping towards the successful implementation of the country’s Universal Basic Education programme, the researchers recommend that teachers should be given regular in-service training in record keeping and retrieval. Development of record keeping skills should also be included in teacher preparation programmes. ( https://www4.nau.edu/cee/jep/journals.aspx?id=183 )

Student Information System

According to Schoolcomputing.wikia.com (2012) Student Information Systems (SIS) manages student records and information. A SIS may handle course management, scheduling, personnel records, grades/comments, room/resource management and more. They can be used to run complex enrollment reports, admissions, course schedules, grades and more. A SIS helps schools manage various operations including student data, administrative, and fundraising operations. A SIS allows for the quick and accessible flow of information. By implementing a SIS to manage daily school needs, teachers and administrators can save time and have immediate access to a variety of student data. These systems are needed for all parties involved in education – parents, children, teachers, administrators, alumni, etc. ( http://schoolcomputing.wikia.com/wiki/Student_Information_Systems )

The abovementioned concepts on the computerization of enrollment system and record keeping is relevant to the present project because these serve as foundation in the development of an enrollment system for the School that will minimize the time consumed and effort exerted by the staff in updating student records and record keeping. The concepts also point to the features of the present study such as the users’ module and database maintenance that will be integrated by the developers in the proposed system.

The concept on record keeping, importance of record keeping, and its fundamental role in the process of efficient information production and collection is used as basis by the researchers in the formulation of the general objectives and important factors to be considered in designing the features that should be included in the development of the proposed enrollment system.

The related studies on the managing of records and information, and record keeping practices provide details and evidence that guide the researchers on how to design and develop an effective enrollment and record keeping tool.

              The existing enrollment system of the School is manually done. The school does not have an existing technology that is essential and necessary for fast and easy enrollment and record keeping process and generation of reports.

For implementation of the proposed system, the school needs to acquire computer units, machine for printing results, and set-up Local Area Network connectivity.

Using the computerized enrolment system and taking advantage of the technology in processing data, record keeping, and in their enrollment system will provide an effective means of processing information and record keeping for the school.

The proposed system shall be installed on a main server and may have a back-up server in case the main server malfunctions. The Microsoft Server 2003 Enterprise Edition will be used as operating system for the server for running applications such as networking and databases. A software firewall shall be configured in the main server and other computers to protect it from viruses.

In the development of the new software, the researchers will utilize the Modified Waterfall Model.

METHODOLOGY

  This chapter deals with the method and technique used by the researchers in conducting the study, the system development method, and its results and discussion.

The researchers will utilize different data gathering techniques in the conduct of this capstone project and will employ different analytical tools to help and justify the conduct of the study. The data gathering techniques will allow researchers to identify the problems encountered by the administration and staff of the school in the existing system. The analytical tools include interview, observation and brainstorming. The data gathered will be analyzed and used as bases in the system design and development of the system.

An interview is a conversation between two people (the interviewer and the interviewee) where questions are asked by the interviewer to obtain information from the interviewee. Observation is either an activity of a living being, such as a human, consisting of receiving knowledge of the outside world through the senses, or the recording of data using scientific instruments. The term may also refer to any data collected during this activity. An observation can also be the way you look at things or when you look at something. Brainstorming is used to get as many ideas as possible from a group of people. Generally used to identify possible solutions to problems, and clarify details of opportunities and finding the solutions to the problem of the existing system.

On system development, the researchers will utilize the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) method in the development of the system. The SDLC method is the process employed in the analysis and design of the system as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1.0 Modified Waterfall Approach Model

Figure 1 illustrates the Modified Waterfall Model that will be used by the researchers in developing the Computerized Enrollment System which is made up of several phases. These are the following:

Requirement Analysis . In this phase, the researchers will study how the system works, determine the user’s wants, needs and requirements, and recommend a solution. The researchers will interview the school administrator, registrar and finance department staff to find out system requirements. After the interview, the researchers will analyze the data, research on related literature and studies. It also involves developing estimates for the work to be performed, establishing the necessary commitments, and defining the plan to perform the work, and finalized the project plan.

System and Software Design . On this phase, the system will be designed based on the requirements needed in the system. The researchers will design the database model structure, link the database tables, design the data forms, and prepare the presentation of the project. The evaluation of the design and functionalities of the system will be conducted. The programmer will review and revise the design of the tables and forms of the system, and test the functionalities of the system. Data Flow Diagram (DFD) will be used to represent the flow of data in the system. Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) shall be employed as data model for the system. The programmer will create the source codes necessary for the system to be constructed.

Testing . This phase includes the process of evaluating a system or application, in order to check whether the application meets all requirements of the client and to detect the errors. Requirements such as software functions and features where checked to determine if it will work according to the specification. This stage ensures that the produced system is complete and performs efficiently, evaluate whether the software perform all activities after integration with the existing operating environment, and measure up the reliability and overall quality of the software.

Implementation . In this phase, the researchers will conduct the system dry-run and conduct training of the target users of the system. The users of the system will check if the recommended functions and suggestions of the users are met.

Operation and Maintenance . This Phase is to ensure the information system is fully functional and performs optimally until the system reaches its end of life. The Operations and Maintenance Phase comprises the following: management of changes to the system to support end users, monitoring of system performance, and performance of required security activities such as backups, and continuation of end user support.

Also, this phase will provide users with the documentation and training required to use the system effectively. Data Conversion will only occur once, but user documentation will be required. Deployment of the product will be carried out, on the hardware that is going to be used in production (on live systems). Deployment itself requires careful planning. Once the product is deployed, initial data will be populated, user training will happen.

The proposed system is entitled “Computerized Enrollment”, a computer software that enables authorized users to automate the enrollment system and record keeping of the school. The software will enable users to locate and retrieve relevant student information and credentials, and generate enrollment summary report.

The completion of the design and development of software will depend upon meeting the following goals and objectives:

  • To provide a database for student’s files so that the enrolling officers would easily update records.
  • To provide enrollment and record keeping software that is fully accessible through Local Area Network (LAN) of the school.
  • To generate reports that is fast, reliable and accurate.

Administrator – The log-in and log-out services, one of the features of the system, will prompt authorized users to enter user id and password. The administrator is the only authorized user of the system who can access all the features of the proposed system software. It has a database that can be updated and maintained by the administrator.

Registrar – The registrar’s office staff are prompt by the system to enter their user id and password. The staff may input grades of students and validate them.

Cashier – The cashier is prompt by the system to enter their user id and password. Upon successful login in the system, the cashier may view the enrollment statistics and students’ complete details. The cashier may receive payments and print receipt.

Project Plan

Before the software project is implemented, the researchers will prepare a project schedule that identifies the anticipated activities involved, management of resources and project plans showing the cost needed in the development of the computer-based enrollment system.

Design of Software and Process

After the gathering of data and identifying user needs through observation and interview as well as users suggestions the researchers will create a design for the system to be developed.

All the requirements of the first phase are being used to contribute in the successful preparation of creating the Computerized Enrollment System for administration and staff. This section will present the Context Diagram, Decomposition Diagram, DFD Explosion for administrator, registrar, and cashier, and Entity Relationship Diagram of the developed system.

Development and Testing

The Modified Waterfall Model, a model develops systematically from one phase to other in a downward fashion like a waterfall, is the system process model that the researchers will utilize in developing the system.

Testing will exercise the system in all possible ways. It includes initial testing and final testing of the new software. The new software together with the equipment and software should be tested prior to the delivery to help ensure that the system works as expected.

Requirements Definition Phase

Activities in this phase are the following: define system requirements, develop system process model, and develop application logical data model, estimate system workload, and identify strategies for training end users. During the Requirements Definition Phase, the researchers together with the beneficiary of the proposed system will work together to establish the architectural boundaries for the project, to establish criteria for measuring the technical performance of the system, and to baseline the requirements.

The system design project, automated enrollment system that will provide the needed and storing information in a faster, more convenient way by storing file of the student enrollees in a computer system that will lessen the effort of faculty staff in storing files of each student every now and then. This will also serve as information especially for the irregular students, freshmen, transferee, and professor/instructor in able to get access in course, subject, professor, and student enrollees. This information here can be viewed in just a second without worrying that a single file is lost. The idea behind an automated enrollment system is not a new concept. As student enrollees increase every year, enrollment procedure become harder to deal. This will only serve to increase the problem facing enrollment that provides more easy way in enrolling. This will also be a big help to all the enrollment staff especially under the management information system because they are the one who are entitled to touch and read the information from here. It will help our institution to have another system that will upgrade the enrollment processes so as to meet the quality that our institutions are trying to meet. Today, the use of technology has been an effective tool on improving such kind of enrolment system. In this study, the use of Visual Basic 6.0 and MS Access database will help to improve the efficiency of the enrolment in the Palompon Institute of Technology-Tabango Campus.

The design and implementation of computerized students’ admission system is focused at realizing an efficient computation of students’ results. These complaints arise from problems discovered in the manual system which not only include inefficiency, inaccuracy, time consumption and inconvenience but laborious and sluggish. The proposed model is focused with studentship monitoring, storing students' fundamental academic records, tracking students if there is any form of wrongdoing, and checking every certificate issued by Ghana Communication Technology University in the future to ensure that false admittance is greatly decreased. An institution cannot function without information; hence an information system is similar to the nervous system in the human body. In this project, a review of other project works was performed and analyzed, giving the same problems listed in the project. Chapter three is a systematic design on how to execute a web design for the admission portal. ER Diagram and Design model were introduced to explain the details of the admission portal. In Chapter 4, there was an implementation of the designed program. The admission portal was administered in three stages, the first stage which is the first page is the login page. The second stage is the admission requirement and the documents needed to complete the admission form and the third stage is where the admission form is downloaded. After downloading the admission form, applicants are supposed to fill them up and upload them unto the same page, including the documents required for the admission form. After that, there is a submit button to submit all documents. This program was designed using PHP and HTML for the frontend design and DJANGO for the backend design. This program will eradicate the problems that both staff and students face.
