Student Grades and Information System for JHS & SHS Students (SGIS)

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Teachers spend so much of their time in making various reports needed by the school, students, parents, and as well as the teachers themselves. One major task by the teacher is to accomplish various School Forms (SFs), and the requirement now is for it to be submitted by the teacher in computerized form. What a teacher needs today is a tool that automate some of their reports so that the time consumed in making reports can be used in preparing their lesson plans and instructional materials.

METHODS

Many approach were used to help the teachers in making their reports but instead of helping only one teacher with a similar problem by many teachers, why not use a tool to help them at once. The solution is to use a tool that is accessible by users through their mobile phones, tablets, netbooks, laptops, or desktop computer. The system is a web based application that can run in various operating system where browser is the only requirement.

RESULTS

Most teachers who utilized the tool were very happy since they can easily generate reports instantly through this tool such as knowing their top performer in the class, generate list of students, generate SF1 to SF10, etc. in an excel format. The collaboration between teachers were improved and the submission of their reports is now on time since reports can be generated through this system/tool. On the part of the student, they can easily view their grades through the system. The teacher will not read their grades anymore to the class nor student will ask every teacher about their grade in every subject. The teacher simply posts their grade using this tool and students will be able to view their own grade just by logging in the system.

DISCUSSIONS

These provides further improvement of the system. The LIS of Department of Education can make use of this tool as basis to provide more avenue for the teacher where in their present system are not included, but some schools who do not have Internet connection, this will be the answer since it does not need Internet connection to function, this web application run in a Local Area Network.
