Design and Implementation of Course Registration and Result Processing System

Design and Implementation of Course Registration and Result Processing System

ABSTRACT

This study was carried out to verify all the manual process involved in generating Students Examination Result and to seek a way of automating the system for effective operations.

Since there is continuous moves towards technological advances that enhanced productivity of labor and free human beings of task more economically by machines.

Computer and its appreciations have become vital tools in economic, industrial and social development of advanced countries of the world.

This system is designed to efficiently handle processes like inputting scores, storing results, classifying the grade points automatically calculated, and interpreting data of students overall result.

he usual manual process now reached a level where it is difficult for the available man power to cope with the magnitude of examination work, in the given time span,

The balance between the man power availability and the magnitude of the examination work result in the delay in the release of results.

INTRODUCTION

The effort expended in the process of registration of students and computation of their examination results is much.

Quite worrisome is the fact that these processes are carried out every academic session, putting the operators in a continuous and ever demanding cycle.

The computation of examination results and registration of students is obviously an object-centered activity, the student being the dominant object in this case.

Hence, the need to evolve a computerized process that will effectively and efficiently capture all the important data associated with the registration and examination result processing within the tertiary institutions and the interactions among the objects.

Students’ Examination Result is the summary of each of the semester performance in schools. A students’ Result is also demanded by a student who has finished his/her program. and wishes to transfer to another school or student who wishes to get a job.
