INTRODUCTION

PROJECT CONTEXT

The education system has undergone significant transformation with the advent of

technology. Rapid advancements in technology have revolutionized the way students learn,

teachers teach, and educational institutions operate. Traditional classroom settings are being

supplemented, and in some cases replaced, by innovative digital tools and platforms. The advent

of technology in education has introduced numerous opportunities and challenges, resulting in a

profound transformation of the learning and knowledge dissemination. Within the educational

setting, a grading system holds immense importance as it is an integral component of school

management. Online grading systems have become increasingly popular in recent years,

allowing educational institutions to automate the grading process and provide students with

instant access to their grades. The student grading system is a web-based platform that allows the

institutions to input student grades and allows students to access their grades from anywhere, at

any time. This system provides transparency and accountability for students. It can also provide a

more comprehensive view of a student's academic progress than traditional paper-based grading

systems.

PURPOSE AND DESCRIPTION

The absence of a grading system can diminish students' sense of accountability for their

academic progress. Without immediate access to grades, students may be less motivated to

monitor their performance and take ownership of their learning. The institution also relies on a

third-party platform like Gmail and Microsoft Teams to transmit the students' grades. Utilizing a

third-party platform carries the inherent risk of compromising the security and privacy of student

data. It is crucial to verify that the platform maintains rigorous data protection protocols and

complies with applicable privacy regulations to uphold the confidentiality of sensitive

information.

. The main objective of this study is to develop an online web-based system by which the

institution may disseminate grades in a systematic manner. Grading system allows students to

view grades, providing transparency and accountability for academic performance. It can be

accessed from anywhere with an internet connection, providing students with easy access to

academic progress.

OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The general objective of the study is to develop an online gateway system by which the

institution may disseminate grades in a systematic manner.

Specific Objectives

1. To design a Students Grading System with the following features:

a. a system that enables students to privately access and review their grades at any

time;

b. a system wherein the institution can distribute grades by the said platform:

c. a system that has user-friendly Graphical User Interface.

d. a system that can upload, edit, delete, and update the grades of the students by the

admins and professors;

2. To construct the proposed system as designed;

3. To test and improve the proposed system using the alpha and beta tests.

4. To evaluate the performance of the proposed system using the ISO 25010:2011 or ISO

9126.

SCOPE AND LIMITATION

The student grades system can provide progress tracking features, allowing students to

see their history of grades and academic progress over time. Students can log-in to view their

grades and academic progress using a secure login page. Each student has a unique student

number, and password that they need to enter to access the student grading system. The student

grades system also has an administrators account that provides additional functionalities and

permissions beyond those available to students. School administrators or academic staff, utilize

the student grades system to manage and oversee various aspects of the grading system.

Administrators have the ability to create and manage user accounts for students. They can access

and update student records, including personal information, contact details, grades, and any
 KOLEHIYO NG COLLEGE OF
LUNGSOD NG Arts and Sciences

relevant documentation.

While the system provides numerous benefits and functionalities, there are also certain

limits to its scope and capabilities. Ensuring strong security measures to protect data privacy and

prevent unauthorized access is essential. The student grades system integrates with the

institution's existing systems. Account creation and access are controlled by the institution, and a

registration process may not be necessary. By not having a registration process, the institution

can maintain stricter control over who has access to the grades system and minimize the risk of

unauthorized access or data breaches. The institution has implemented a single sign-on solution

where students use their existing credentials (e.g., student number and password) to access their

online grades system. The student grades system was designed to function as a platform for

recording and displaying grades. Thus, the administrators are responsible for manually entering

the grades into the system, and the system simply displays the entered data and calculates the

GWA.
