Design and Implementation of an Automated Student Result Processing System

Design and Implementation of an Automated Student Result Processing System

Table of Contents

ABSTRACT

The conventional method of processing and accessing student result via a physical effort with the aid of conventional material like pen, pencil, book, ruler and so is cumbersome and very stressful.

This project examined an automated student result processing system with respect to the different phases involved in the development of system today, such as system programming and design, program logic, change over style, documentation, and its significance over the manual system of result processing system.

The automated student result processing system allow and ensure easy insertion and deletion of student record, and it also allow the user to add and update the record of student in any given semester after the conduction of their continuous assessment  and  examination in other to generate their Grade Point (GP)  and Cumulative Grade Point (CGP) easily.

INTRODUCTION

As we all know the application of computer is very relevant in every aspect of human life and there is need for everyone to be conversant with the new technology. The computer is used to carry out a task and assist man in business organization, research, education and many aspect of life.

The development of computer to be used in office industries, homes as a replacement of manual method of data processing is the best technology that has ever happen to office management.

In view of this, it is necessary for student result processing management system in Kogi State Polytechnic Lokoja to be computerized in other to aid the processing of student record on time.

Computerization is the process of changing or converting a manual work done into an automated process using a computer.
