ABSTRACT

As the computer takes a significant role in our life, its benefits also increase. One of these is the

different automated systems created. A computerized system helps us to lessen our time in doing

specific jobs. However, most public senior high schools use manual process in enrolling student.

Students will fill out the form and submit to the enrolment adviser using the DepEd admission

form. The enrolment adviser will consolidate the forms and encode in spreadsheet for better

record management. Similarly, students’ interest and junior high school grades are the only

factors considered in choosing strand to enroll. Hence, this study aims to address data

redundancy, data management and process automation. Similarly, the system will serve as a

decision support system that will guide students in choosing the best track based on the

Department of Education's existing criteria in assessing students' interests and future direction.

The waterfall model of the software development life cycle was utilized in the development of

the system. The alpha testing was performed for software testing to identify bugs before

releasing. Also, beta testing was performed for the end users in a real environment. As a result,

the respondents found out that the system is very much acceptable tallying a weighted mean of

4.93 when evaluated using ISO 25010 standard to determine the extent of compliance in terms of

software quality.

CHAPTER I

THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

Introduction

Technology permits people to expand their works in the shortest possible time. People are

now using the most important and highly developed machines. Data innovation is the think

about, plan, advancement, usage, bolster, or computer-based data frameworks, especially

computer program applications and computer equipment. The most significant creation made by

a human is computer. The services it provides made an impact in our daily lives. Modern

establishment use computers to process paperwork like banks, private offices, hospitals,

government agencies, etc.

Student online registration systems were established to better and improve ways for

students to interact with these systems. This reduces the long queues observed during the

registration period (Town, 2017). The student registration system's development has greatly

simplified previously complex tasks (Kratzke & Cox, 2012). To automate the registration

process without any physical human interaction and making the registration process accessible

anywhere. Likewise, most students perceive the e-registration process as effective, and they had

a good experience using it (Registration et al., 2020).

At present, senior high school registration system involves the filling out of several

records and application forms and submission of pertinent documents. At each point of the

process, data has to be entered repeatedly. For each point of the process, the amount of data the
 2

processing needed means that new student enrollment takes a long time. Likewise, students have

hard times choosing strand that best suits their interest and academic/scholastic records.

Objectives of the Study

General

Thus, study aims to address data redundancy, data management and process automation.

Similarly, the system will serve as a decision support system that will guide students in choosing

the best track based on the Department of Education's existing criteria in assessing students'

interests and future direction.

Specifically, to:

1. Identify the processes involved in student registration and career/track direction.

1.1 Registration; and

1.2 Recording.

2. Develop a simple decision support system that will guide students in choosing the best

strand based on Department of Education's existing criteria in assessing students'

interests.

3. Develop a Senior High School Registration System with Strand Recommender that will

contain the following modules:

3.1 Login;

3.2 Add users;

3.3 Administrator;
 3

3.4 Registered Students;

3.5 Student Registration;

3.6 Senior High School Student Registration;

3.7 Metrics;

3.8 Student list;

3.9 Users; and

3.10 Report Generation.

4. Test the developed system in terms of:

4.1 Alpha Testing; and

4.2 Beta Testing.

5. Evaluate the extent of compliance of the developed system using ISO 25010 in terms of:

5.1 Functional Suitability;

5.2 Performance efficiency;

5.3 Compatibility;

5.4 Usability;

5.5 Reliability;

5.6 Security;

5.7 Maintainability; and

5.8 Portability.

Scope and Limitation

This study aims to identify the processes involved in student registration and career/track

direction. Similarly, develop a Registration System with Strand Recommender. The registration
 4

system allows the user to manage the students records thus eliminates data redundancy and

provides better records keeping. Most records needed by the DepEd division office will be

prepared and manage carefully. A camera – ready report will be made available anytime due to

the availability of the system. The strand recommender is a decision support system that will

serve as aide to the students in choosing the best strands that suits his qualification using the

DepEd assessment criteria. Also, the system was subjected to user acceptance testing, to assess

the software quality in terms of alpha and beta testing. Other testing tools and standards will not

be included in this study due to the limited time amidst pandemic. The ISO 25010 is utilized in

evaluating the extent of compliance of the developed system. User satisfaction quality such as

information, system, and service quality where not included in this study.

Significance of the study

The persons who will be benefited from this study are the following;

Senior High School - The main beneficiary of the study is SHS students that would be adapting
the innovation of technology through the web that will make their work with ideal
execution.

Administrator – Help to monitor the information of the students and manage records by using
the system.

Student – System will help them to register their information.

Researchers – The study gives them theories and methodologies in research design and

implementation to improve their ability to gather information in the field of research. It

will also allow them to make their effort and skills in the field of computers.

Future Researchers - This study may serve as valuable reference material for future researchers

who will conduct the same study.

Related Literature and Studies

Online Examination System

By preventing the conduct of physical exams, online exam organisations save their costs.

The user is requested to register on the website for online exams during the primary procedure.

The examinee's personal details are registered and stored in a later use server form. This multi-

modal system combines two biometric modes, face recognition, followed by highly efficient and

reliable keystroke dynamics to perform an Online Review. The combination of these two

methods does not resemble existing systems, based on the research carried out, and a True

Acceptance rate of over 80% is high individually feasible. At the same time, it is a true panacea

for these organisations, which benefit from an increasing pool of eligible candidates. In addition,

for specific examinations, this system places a thinner time limit. Users can almost instantly view

their results. However, online examinations involve many problems that organizations have to

deal with following a thorough study (Sungkur et al., 2013).

The VLAN concept-based intelligent online exam system. The system functions as an

advanced adaptable tool via which teachers and students may analyze and evaluate the desired
 6

results of learning via online testing. Researchers utilize the VLAN to address the problem by

grouping customers who are physically connected. The researchers employ the VLAN network.

The system may produce information for every terminal on the network, generate unique binary

code for each query group, generate various inquiries, and spread the matter over the nearby

VLANs without repeating the same format (Bazar & Al-kasasbeh, 2015).

A security firewall online examination. The firewall must be passed by traffic inside and

outside and vice-versa. It is used largely to defend network protection on the online test system

servers in that zone, to avoid internal and external network traffic, and to avoid internal and

external hackers, and to offer examination users with a more secure authenticated system (Selvi

et al., 2014).

Our study seeks to assess student difficulties in physics learning using an e-learning

system to fulfill the entrance test challenge paired with a mixed learning model. We survey

students who joined Guided University Physics at the beginning of the semester to better

understand the background of the student (Rui et al., 2018).

An online test distribution of questions depending on the locations of a terminal; the

suggested approach considers randomly selecting the examination questions. For e-learning

success, trustworthy and secure on-line test systems are needed. Our technique is performance

efficient as it minimizes random generating procedures to choose from the test bank every exam

question (Fayyoumi & Suwais, 2015).

An e-exam system based on the Android Platform design and implementation. The

platform-based technique for mobile closed systems. It is used to cover the online test

requirements of various organizations, in order to reduce the system costs to deploy, install and
 7

use. This has resulted in the proposed system needing minimum expertise in computer use by

both examiners and system administrators (Meletiou et al., 2012).

Dynamic and interactive methods for review from Distribution Algorithm for Online

Examination Systems provide related work on learning management systems, such as results of

form distribution to confirm that the algorithm being proposed improves the reliability of online

examination systems and guarantees that adjacent students in a laboratory do not receive an

algorithm (Al Bazar, 2017).

The exam and design phases in this study are conceived by a test algorithm of the

adaptive examination system. The development and implementation of an adaptive system of

online exams. The processes can be conducted, analyzed, measured, and assessed. The design

and implementation of the examination system are performed in this study (Yağci & Ünal,

2014).

The aim of admission to the university using admission examinations is to maximize

expected effort. They show that it is optimum for the whole award to be allocated to a single first

prize when cost functions are linear or concave. The percentile determines the confidentiality of

the bootstrap. For every application, the centralized system is superior, as the theory suggests

(Hafalir et al., 2018).

Responsive Website

Responsive websites use reactive designs to create flexible designs, images, and other

media. Responding websites are intended to identify the reader's screen size automatically and

then adjust to that size (Katajisto, 2015).

 8

A website with varied resolution devices – mobile phones, tablets, PCs, laptops, etc – can

appear the same, without changing its code. This is linked to several needs and constraints -

proper management and navigation control layout and font size, no page width fixing, pictures,

or other things (Hadzhikolcv et al., 2018).

Public Universities in Malawi have adopted the search for a sustainable strategy for

accessing preferred virtual learning environments. It covers and aims at applying the Polytechnic

student scenario to all public universities in the framework of the University of Malawi

constituent college. During a lengthy conversation, a questionnaire was used to gather

information from volunteer students to obtain the information needed for this study. The

university was focused on external examination organizations such as the city, guilds, and

CISA's networking in technical and engineering courses. No differentiation was made between

the target group and targeted university students. The trial had 100 students and 63 viable

answers, 63 of whom had internet-friendly telephones. It was necessary to determine whether the

pupils had gadgets that could initially view Responsive/Mobile Web pages from their telephones.

Then, we examined further the sort of telephones that students typically use (Chilivumbo, 2015).

To give a universal means of analyzing the website code and construct the new page

structure suited for viewing via multiple style sheets, a model was added to the automatic

production of mobile pages. It can be used for the development of an individual application that

acts as a proxy by creating and visualizing a mobile page version that allows different content

styles, including those specially designed for people with disabilities, to be applied and

implemented as a mobile browser plug-in that works transparently for users, disguise details

about building a mobile web. This explains the key actions of automated construction of a

mobile version of a website. This comprises the retrieval of the web page code, parsing, the
 9

construction of a hierarchical object model, and the development of a document model that is

acceptable for styling, choosing, and using an appropriate sheet. The model may be developed

with additional features and tokens for detailed construction of a mobile hierarchical DOM

(Hadzhikolcv et al., 2018).

Wearable EEG sensors have also produced a web browser design that is sensitive to our

user's interests. They offer a method for monitoring the degree of attention of people while

reading a webpage. By several proposed interfaces, the web browser may be adapted to the

degree of interest. Researchers have currently solely conducted mobile web browsers analyses

and trials. This can be extended by researchers to desktop browsers in the future. This approach

may also be applied to other applications, for example, e-book readers (Kumar et al., 2016).

The second is a study of responsive HTML5 and CSS3 website design technologies.

First, this article explores the core notion of responding to the growth of a web page, and then the

processes and essential technologies for respondent web pages. The website may automatically

adapt the page layout by identifying the screen size of the device and ensure that the page

content is usually presented on PC screens, pads, mobile phones, and other varied resolution

instruments. This design concept has significantly improved the experience of the user. As a

result, reactionary web design is effective and feasible. The reactive business is built based on

HTML5 and CSS3, which can automatedly adjust to a wide range of PC resolutions and varied

mobile sizes, completely expressing the features of "single-time design," which can be

universally used." Users may see web pages with the same look and content and have a better

experience on PCs, tablets, and mobile phones (Erman Ozguven & Ozbay, 2012).

Users can view web pages with an identical look and content with an improved

experience on their PCs and tablets, mobile phones, web design responsive, coherent, familiar,
 10

and flexible, feedback efficient, and esthetic. Since this study focused only on websites of

receptive web design, further research and studies on another category of web design are

recommended. This is because web design responsive is the latest Web design concept. It has

shown limits and alternatives, but can also become an inevitable good web design practice

(Majid et al., 2015).

One study also attempted to compare a web page on a computer monitor, tablet, and

smartphone with effectiveness and efficiency. The implementation in the design process of the

material design guidelines and user-centric Design approaches could influence the efficiency and

effectiveness of the content. The website has also been evaluated and presented on small screens.

Research has shown that user-centric design and material design guidelines improve content

delivery effectiveness and efficiency on both tablets and smartphones. A User-Centered Design

(UCD) and Material Design Guidelines (MDG) therefore employ a different approach in the

process of design improvement in product design. MDG produces visual languages that

synthesize excellent design concepts with the principles of human perception and give an

account of accessibility to enable and motivate developers and designers to meet all user

demands, which are mostly applicable for the mobile user interface. In turning a website layout

into smaller displays, MD supports many patterns or best practices. In design processes, UCD

uses a user-focused approach. UCD directly engages potential users who utilize the web or

applications designed and created instead of developing user interfaces and user experiences for

general users (Pinandito et al., 2018).

Course Recommender

Online Courses Recommendations aims to provide an effective course recommendation

using multiple techniques, unlike generating rules to cover the whole dataset. Clustering dataset
 11

has a significant impact on performance and choosing high coverage yields better results in the

recommendation system (Obeidat et al., 2019).

An application to course recommender systems to analyze the data collected they used

online matrix factorization method to predict student’s performance in different courses that are

yet to be offered and recommend courses based on suitable criteria as a result of experiments

carried out suggest that the proposed regularization in the learning algorithm improves the

prediction accuracy and computation times (Shah et al., 2017).

The conventional method of picking courses for doing research is time-consuming,

hazardous, and laborious, negatively impacting not just a researcher's performance but also his or

her learning experience. As a result, selecting proper courses during pivotal years may aid in

better research. This research provides a recommender system that will assist a learner in picking

courses that meet their needs. To retrieve useful information and make accurate

recommendations, the Hybrid methodology was combined with ontology. Learners may benefit

from such an approach if they want to improve their performance and happiness. The suggested

recommender systems would outperform simple individual recommender systems by addressing

their flaws (Zameer Gulzar et al., 2018).

The majority of electronic commerce and knowledge management systems rely on

recommender systems to select a group of items that will be of interest to a certain user. Items

are recommended by collaborative recommender systems based on similarities and differences

between users' preferences. This study describes a collaborative recommender system that uses

courses completed by other like students to recommend university optional courses to students.

To find patterns between courses, the proposed system uses an association rules mining method
 12

as the fundamental approach Experiments with actual datasets were used to evaluate the

suggested approach's overall performance. (Al-Badarenah & Jamal Alsakran, 2016).

A course recommendation system is useful in predicting a student's course selection.

Here, we use real data from our college's Moodle course to try to obtain a result using Weka. We

present the architecture for the Course Recommender System in this work, as well as how data

flows through the system. This method predicts the optimal subject combination, or the subjects

that pupils are most interested in. We collect data from students about their course selections

using a learning management system such as Moodle. The Course Recommender System enables

us to examine student behavior in relation to courses. We collect data on student enrollments for

a specific set of data in the Course Recommender System in E-learning, i.e. the courses that

students like to learn. After gathering data, we use three data mining techniques to find the best

course combination: clustering, classification, and association rule. We compare the results of

this combination method to the results achieved using only the association rule algorithm and

show how this combined approach is superior to the association rule algorithm alone (Aher &

Lobo, 2012).

Online Student Registration System

Student online registration system aims to establish better and improved ways for

students to interact with the systems. This establishes the student's perceptions of online

registration system. Hence, it makes registration easier for the users and identify the challenges

and success factors of managing an online system. Researchers use the updated DeLone, and

McLean IS success model (Town, 2017).

 13

This development has greatly simplified previously complex tasks to automate the

registration process without any physical human interaction and make the registration process

accessible anywhere to the student. As a result, manual work is reduced to a large extent and can

now accomplish the task of maintaining huge data with a few buttons clicks (Kratzke & Cox,

2012).

Online registration system interaction management needs to be improved and fully

automated to avoid unnecessary delays. The researchers investigate the challenges of e-

registration by students, students’ experience during the e-registration process, and determine the

extent of e-registration system effectiveness. This study employed a mixed-methods technique.

The term mixed methods refers to a research methodology that promotes the integration of

quantitative and qualitative data within single research though it comes at a cost to the

institution. Therefore, the findings of this research indicate that most students perceive the e-

registration process as effective, and they had a good experience using it (Registration et al.,

2020).

The implementation of the online course registration system is the central part of the

educational administration system (Peng et al., 2012). The researcher uses the willingness

method to develop a new strategy to improve the registration mechanism, implement standard

course registration for undergraduate and graduate students, and support teaching activities

across spring, summer, and fall semesters

Also, (Shafie et al., 2011) develop a user-friendly online registration system for academic

usage by allowing the students to tick their attendance through the online educational login

procedure, assisting instructors in keeping track of student attendances. The researcher uses a

Waterfall model methodology.

 14

Online information system of new student registration aims to determine the level of user

success of online new student registration by applying DeLone and McLean. This SISFO often

faces problems such as difficulty in filling out for every day because the of lack of socialization

so that it is necessary for evaluation on Online Information System of new student registration.

(SISFO PPDB) design by the Government of the Republic of Indonesia through the City

Education Office to automate unique student registration selection to ease the new student

registration. Therefore, this model can predict user satisfaction in using SISFO PPDB using three

aspects, namely information quality, system quality, and service quality (Hudin et al., 2018).

The Student Registration System aims to develop a computerized database system to

manage information for Standard High School Zana that will handle data consistency and ensure

maximum data security. As a result, Updates and correction of records were very time-

consuming. There were wear and tear of the different files and papers kept raising the

researcher’s attention to identify a basic integrated computer-based information system to solve

the above problems and avoid misunderstanding and complaints from the stakeholders. The

information system included proposing a data flow diagram to show how information should

flow within the school, and needed an integrated database to help ( [Link] ).

An online-based registration system collects all the results to analyze from the study. The

system uses a 3-tier web-based client/server architecture. The researcher developed and

maintained an independent module through the introduction of an online registration system that

improved the efficiency of the university as a whole (Chaka & Mungadzi, 2013).

A Design and Implementation of Student Registration System for Universities this

system provide the student registration with information-based support in the universities,

making various departments within the universities share the student information in real-time and
 15

obtain related data before making important decisions. The informatization, automation,

standardization of student registration management can be satisfied by the system, and it’s the

use of management information system technology in a related field (Liu et al., 2012).

There are several online systems which have been developed and are tailored to meet the

needs of diverse contexts. (Gunawardana et al., 2008) studied and produced a solution called

Online Registration on the Online Courses for the Faculty of Engineering of the University of

Peradeniya. The project was separated into three: Online registration, the start-up of their system,

and data access and web security. Data Access would operate the client-server data transaction

and web security would create the database and handle the authentication and permission. The

research has detailed their experience with the design, development and deployment of an online

system of registration at the University of Peradeniya Faculty of Engineering. Not only has the

system lowered the costs of all participating parties, but also the process by minimizing mistakes

has been enhanced. Although their technology has greatly reduced mistakes, it has not continued

to engage with the student when updating the registration status of the student. It is also

irresponsible as certain stakeholders have no access to the system throughout the registration

process.

This specification of software design is developed with the aim of describing in depth the

Student Registration System's software architecture and design. The document provides

developers with an insight into the efficiency and effectiveness of customer demands. The paper

also helps to communicate and comprehend the system through many concepts of system design

(University of Sri Lanka).

Software Development Life Cycle

 16

The subsequent steps, including as development and testing, are the main focus of the

present software development metrics. However, early disclosure of SDLC mistakes has a huge

impact on teamwork's efficiency by spending more time on prevention and less on corrections in

later stages. In addition, the rework in later phases increases quality costs and causes the

development team to spend more time. The aim of this review is to evaluate the categorization of

the current SDLCs and to determine the quality of software process measurement Using the

search keywords as well as inclusion/exclusion criteria for the quality evaluation of primary

studies we chose out of 200 publications the most relevant papers based on the SRL research

procedure. This systemic literature analysis correlates cost, time and quality of the software with

the SDLC stages (Ergasheva & Kruglov, 2020).

Software with lower costs, greater functionality, quicker delivery and high standards is

increasingly needed than before. There is a growing need. The creation of software has recently

grown increasingly complicated and diversified. SDLC models are of paramount importance for

the methodical development of the software to be delivered in good time and to have good

quality as well. Tons of models are available for SDLC. There are some advantages and

downsides to each paradigm of growth. The study begins with the introduction of the SDLC and

the discussion and exhaustive comparison of the different SDLC models (Modi et al., 2017).

Code was written and then debugged in the earliest days of software development. For

design and analysis there was no systematic process. This code and debug approach was less

than optimal because of the complex software system requirements. Since the development of

complicated hardware systems was widely known, it provided a paradigm for software

development (David, 1991).

 17

Incremental model is the linear and iterative model mix. It includes more than one model

of Waterfall. This methodology measures the requirements and implements prototyping

frequently from the previously produced prototype till the software product is wanted (kaur,

2015).

The spiral model may indeed be utilized for many commercial applications, in particular

for initiatives that do not succeed or need a lot of calculations, like in decision support systems

(DeGrace et al., 1990).

As we know, software charges take place at the lower cost, easy to provide & quality

batten. Tons of models are available; what counts is which project need which model to create its

software. Outside no models, there are a number of important models including Waterfall,

Incremental, Spiral, V-Shaped, RAD, Agile models. We wish to explain the different models in

this paper. The fundamental reason for this article is the adoption of a range of models to analyze

the qualities and weaknesses of each model in a relative way (Mani & kumar, 2018)

ISO 25010
 18

Because of the level of impact on both construction and product acceptance, the ISO

25010 standard assessment can be used as a method for software creation, and its user

community aspects should be regarded as a high-level feature (Miguel, Mauricio, & Rodríguez,

2014).

The ISO 25010 standard model, in the opinion and perspective of individual respondents,

can be used to create a 170 baseline vocabulary for managing software product quality. They do,

however, require procedures that take into account their limited resources when receiving,

defining, analyzing, and validating quality specifications. More research is needed to improve

the method, as well as to include specific practices to improve specific product quality

characteristics. (García-Mireles, 2016).

The primary methodology for evaluating software products is ISO / IEC 25010: 2011.

This is an essential contribution to the delivery of software processes and recommended changes.

In the context of this wide, lifetime service-oriented perspective, this article examines the scope

and interpretation of ISO/IEC 25010 quality models and identifies other important elements of a

product involving software buyers for which quality has to be assessed as well as quality

standards. The article is completed with suggestions for refining and extending the standard

(Estdale & Georgiadou, 2018).

Higher education institutions (HEIs), due to the request of different governments to

simplify their procedures and practices, have swiftly began the adoption, selection and

implementation of ERP systems. Although ERPs are developing considerably more rapidly, the

majority of HEIs are under pressure to guarantee quality. ISO/IEC 25010 is an international

standard for quality assessment of software and systems. This article offers a revised ISO/IEC

25010 model for assessing quality enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems with the
 19

introduction of three additional subset criteria. In higher education institutions, this new

approach may be utilized to choose and deploy ERP systems. It can also provide guidance in the

implementation of ERP systems at institutions of higher education. The new model has eight

aspects including functionality, dependability, and usability, efficiency of performance,

compatibility, security, maintenance and portability. These 8 criteria of quality are further split

into 34 sub-factors. The results of this study are therefore a model built to evaluate ERP systems

in HEIs for quality (Peters & Aggrey, 2020).

CHAPTER III
METHODOLOGY

The Senior High School (SHS) Registration System with Track Recommender Student

focuses on registering student's information. The system will track if the students may enroll

depending on the students' criteria, and when the students are not qualified, the track

recommender will recommend a strand. Based on the student's criteria. This study aims to

address student registration and with track recommender. That can be accessed through

websites/Smartphone that allows students to register online.

The system is developed using the Waterfall Model of System Development Life Cycle.

Figure 3-1. The waterfall model (Tech Target, 2016)

This figure shows the model used for this research Senior High School (SHS)

Registration System with Track Recommender.

 35

A Waterfall Model illustrates the software development process in a linear sequential

flow. Since customer requirements are not clear, every iteration incorporates feedback at

multiple levels in the product development process.

Requirement Analysis 

Having an effective and efficient online registration system with track recommendation is

advantageous to a school, whereas the faculty and staff would be benefit together with the

students. Senior High School uses a manual system for registration the information of students to

enroll. We decided to propose a Senior high school students' registration with a track

recommendation to input their student information. To help the school manage its students'

process of information and track what strands they stay based on the student's criteria. Through

websites, smartphones, and any platform, students access and register their information and track

their criteria. A senior high school is a perfect school for this proposed system considering its

bigger population and location. With its help (SHS), registration with a track recommender will

improve the student's information process.

In this phase, the researchers will learn how the system works, based on the client's

wants, needs, and requirements, and recommend a solution. The researchers will gather the

information using the interview method at school administrators, faculty/teachers, and some of

the students to know the system requirements. After the interview, the researchers will analyze

the data, research on related literature and studies. It also involves developing estimates for the

work to be performed, building up the essential duties, and outlining the plan to perform the

work until finalized the project plan.

 36

Data Gathering Technique

This study uses a questionnaire as the main instrument in gathering the needed data. The

researchers used the descriptive type of research. The data were gathered and interpreted to

develop and accomplish the needed system. Further, it was supported by observation and

documentation of analysis.

The following instruments are used to gather information;

Interview. The researchers conducted an actual interview with the faculty/teachers and students

of senior high school.

Internet Research. The researchers also used the internet to search for additional information

needed to gather significant interrelated topics and improve the system, such as gathering

information like related literature and studies, new features to be added and its scope

delimitations, etc.

Library Research. The researchers used this method to collect additional information through

the use of books, articles, and even related systems that were already available to have a

broad concept about the proposed system. It is also used in defining terms in the study,

and it served as their guideline in making document analysis from similar studies and

procedures.
 37

Observation. The researchers considered the importance of observation. This is used to observe

actual recordings or the management of the information as a whole. The researchers also

observe school transactions and school students for further information to help develop

the system.

Questionnaire. The researchers floated questionnaires to the respondents to determine the

efficiency of the current and the proposed system. The questionnaire will serve as the

basis of what the system could do to address the problem being encountered at that

particular School.

Review of Relevant Documents. The researchers reviewed sample forms utilized in the existing

manual system. They reviewed documents like related literature and studies regarding

how we can improve the existing SHS Registration System with Track Recommendation

to reduce paper dependency and reduce residents' request waiting time upon developing

the system.

System Design

In this phase, it will help to define the overall architecture requirements for the System

and Hardware specification. The system will be designed based on the requirements needed in

the system. The researchers will design the database model structure, link the database tables,

and design the data forms. A Data Flow Diagram (DFD) will be used to represent the flow of

data in the system. Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) shall be employed as a data model for the

system.

Software Development Tool

 38

Many software development tools can be used to develop the system, but the researchers

had their own choice of what kind of language and software they will be using

Testing
 43

As soon as the current build iteration has been coded and implemented, the researchers

gear themselves up to go through a series of testing procedures to identify and locate any

potential bugs or issues that have cropped up.

1. Alpha testing - The ones who created and programmed the system, which are the

researchers of this study, are the ones who can understand every part of the system. Each of its

function, how it works, and even fix it if something is wrong in the system. They are also the

ones who can give maintenance of the system, to maintain or upgrade the system if there is

something else that needs to be updated.

2. Beta Testing - this person will be the one who will use the system, but compared to

alpha, they do not know how to create a system. However, they know how the system works and

how to operate it.

System evaluation

3. The researchers test the system to focus on the functionality of the senior high school

registration system with strand recommender.

CHAPTER IV
RESULT AND DISCUSSION

Senior High School Existing Registration Processes

At present, Senior High School uses manual process in enrolling student. Using the

DepEd admission form, students will fill out the form and submit to the enrolment adviser. The

enrolment adviser will consolidate the forms and encode in Microsoft Excel for better record

management. Similarly, students’ interest and junior high school grades are the only factors

considered in choosing strand to enroll. Thus, creates bias in choosing the strand.

Using the developed system, this will facilitate efficiently the records keeping and

enrollment process. In addition, the strand recommender is a decision support system that serves

as an aide to the senior high school and students in determining the best strand to take.

Strand Recommender using Decision Support System

The decision support system for the strand recommender was developed using the

following criteria:

A heuristic approached based on expert’s judgment was drawn in the development of the

decision support system. The top 3 highest scores among the different strands will be

recommended to the student. Note that the decision support system is just a guide for the student

and the school. The student and the school still has the freedom to choose whatever strand the

student wishes to take.

CHAPTER V
SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS

This chapter presents the summary of findings, conclusions, and recommendations based

on the discussion of the previous chapter.

 70

SUMMARY

The study focused on the development of the system, which can be used by admin, and

teachers in terms of using online registration systems. The participants can simply register at

their convenience and submit their information immediately. The participant can do corrections

as needed without worrying about erasing or cutting. The information the participant sends will

be immediately loaded into a database. When it comes to online registration systems, the entrant

will be able to receive a confirmation email immediately after fulfilling the requirements. The

database automatically updates allowing the organizers to have a real-time update about the

numbers.

CONCLUSION

Based on the results of the study conducted, the following conclusions were drawn:

1. The common problem encountered in the existing, registration progress process is the

recording and registering students which takes a lot of time. Similarly, records were

sometimes missing, thus leading to the inadequacy of records—also, redundant

records keeping resulting in duplication and the difficulty in preparing reports.

2. The developed system addresses the problems encountered through the following
modules:
 
2.1 Setup that allows the users to manage the student's information and metrics;

2.2 Report that will provide a printable summary of records and not provide any data
duplication.

3. The alpha testing was performed for software testing to identify bugs before

releasing. Also, beta testing was performed for the end users in a real environment.

4. The developed system was evaluated using ISO 25010 and was found out by the

respondents to be:
 71

a. Functional Suitability tallied a Strongly Agree of 4.94;

b. Performance efficiency tallied a Strongly Agree of 4.93;

c. Compatibility tallied a Strongly Agree of 4.93;

d. Usability tallied; a Strongly Agree of 4.94;

e. Reliability tallied a Strongly Agree of 4.95;

f. Security tallied a Strongly Agree of 4.90;

g. Maintainability tallied a Strongly Agree of 4.95;

h. Portability tallied a Strongly Agree of 4.92;

Therefore, the development of the student registration system has greatly simplified

previously complex tasks. Manual work is reduced to a large extent. The task of maintaining

huge data can now be accomplished with a few buttons clicks and accessible anywhere,

registration process has been simplified. The database is maintained on a central server so that it

can be accessed anywhere inside the university by authorized personnel. Different departments

can access the data whenever required.

Recommendations

Based on the findings and conclusion drawn from the development and evaluation of this

study, the following are hereby recommended:

1. The developed program is highly recommended to be utilized by the senior high school

teachers and students.

2. Evaluate the system using suer satisfaction quality such as information, system, and service

quality.
