Integrated web based record management system of students’ attendance & assessment submission / Jamal Othman ... [et al.]

Lecturers carry varieties of responsibility such as recording the students ’ attendance and students ’ assessment marks management. Currently, the lecturer manually records the students ’ attendance without having a proper web-based application system. Similarly for the submission of assignments or project papers, the students will be given a link by the lecturer using selected cloud. These resulted the file name uploaded by the students do not follow the standard and the lecturer need to rename manually the filename accordingly before the marking process is started. Hence, this article suggested an integrated web-based application system which the system will record the students ’ attendance and help the students to submit the assessments using the standard links as a one stop center for both modules. The methodology of SDLC has been applied for the system development. This web- based system has been developed using HTML and PHP programming to cater the attendance and assessments submission modules. The system has been tested to 97 students of diploma and degree students at Universiti Teknologi MARA, at Perlis branch for 1 semester. The students responded positively because the systems make the process of log in the attendance and assessment submission is easier than before. Furthermore, integration of both modules reduces the bureaucracy which make the lecturers work efficiently and feel unstressful
