The Proposed Solution

Title and brief description of the proposed solution

The AMS for RTTNHS Su-ay Ext. is developed for the attendance monitoring of Raymundo T. Tongson NHS Su-ay Ext. The system is a window – based system that has the function to record the attendance of the students and teachers. The proposed system covers the problem of using the manual system such as an unsecured record of attendance, lots of paper works, and inaccuracy of the data inputs. This proposed system will benefit the school for its development and improvement by using a new technology and improved system for the day-to-day process of attendance.

The proposed system is entitled Attendance Monitoring System for Raymundo T. Tongson NHS Su-ay Ext. The system is developed to provide automation for the daily attendance of the students and teachers. The purpose of this system is to help the RTTNHS Su-ay Ext. to improve the attendance monitoring system for students and teachers. With the system created with a user-friendly environment, the school staff would find their work easy and efficient. The system will help the school administrators to make the process of providing daily, weekly and monthly attendance reports easy to generate. The system will also help the school administrators to evaluate the attendance performance of the students and teachers with ease. This will help the school a lot for its development and performance in terms of attendance monitoring.

Scope of the Proposed Solution

The proposed system was generally focused on the monitoring of the login and logout of the students and teachers. Students and teachers will only provide their identification code for their attendance after registering their information. The system will automatically determine and reflected if a student did not attend his classes.

Concept of Operation

The implementation plan will be enhanced and updated as new actions are introduced and implemented to the system. The system tracks the performance of students regarding their attendance on a regular basis. The System Overview Attendance Monitoring System provides a foolproof solution for the existing problems of the business.

Data Flow Diagram

Proposed Data Flow Diagram (AMS)
Figure 6. Proposed Data Flow Diagram (AMS)

Figure 6 shows that in the proposed system, the staff will register the student or teacher and to be verified by the staff. The registration is only a one-time process for each student and teacher.  After the registration, it will continue to log in and record for daily attendance. The proposed system can generate records daily or monthly according to the students’ or teachers’ requests.

Figure 8 shows the relationship of tables of the proposed system in the database, an ERD is shown to trace the connection of each table. The models of the data were used independently of all physical consideration is constructed. The model is based on the requirements specification of the proposed system. The design also considers the logical and physical database design phase meaning the design is based on the target data and base relations, indexes, integrity constraint, security are defined using SQL Language. The database management system (DBMS) used was MySQL and the design user interface and the application program that use and process the database are defined and designed.

Advantages

  • Reduce paperwork and save time and money with mobile and cloud-based attendance management system
  • Eliminate duplicate data entry and errors in time and attendance entries
  • Improve visibility to track and manage student’s attendance & absenteeism across multiple campuses
  • Track the attendance of teachers and students.
  • Keep the parents informed about the student’s performance
  • Auto-generate various types of reports of student attendance
  • Increased security and confidentiality with role-based permissions to users

Disadvantages

  • Automatic calculation of leave and reward points accrued
  • Automatic teachers and student evaluation about the attendance performance.
  • Scheduling of events in the school.

Technical Feasibility

During the research development of AMS RTTNHS Su-ay ext., we conclude that the system is technically feasible because all the technical aspects of the system are already available presented to the organization throughout the research.

Social and Operational Feasibility

The AMS RTTNHS Su-ay ext. is social and operational feasible because the system is designed as a user-friendly system and accordance to the client’s needs for the effectiveness of the operation and process of delivering the desired output needed by the client.

Economic Feasibility

The proposed system being developed is economic with respect to the school’s point of view. It costs effective in the sense that it has eliminated the paperwork completely. The system is also time effective because the calculations are automated which are made at the end of the month or as per the user requirement. The result obtained contains minimum errors and is highly accurate as the data is required.
