Abstract
This study focuses on the development of a computerized system of
student pre-registration and sectioning. The manual registration
system is a paper-based student registration. The student submits a
hard-copy of filled application form to the school. This process is time
consuming and the office staff enters all data into excel file. The
online class scheduling system will capture information about the
student and associated reports. The system will allow the student
information to be filled-up online and the system will be used for
computerized managing students profile information.

II. Introduction
In a rapidly emerging world of technological advancement and
innovations, computer has become a way of life and a driving force of
modern industry and business. This becomes one of the most
significant tools for more productive operations and accurate results.
The web-technology is going through major changes, as a basis of the

development of web-based applications and informative systems,

web-technology is being matured over the past few years.
Online registration is one of the evolutions that technology made.
Every student want to have the assurance that they belong to a
specific class that they want. While teachers and staff may look at this
process as a tedious one, since it would just add to their existing set of
responsibilities, online class registration can actually do this.
Schedules are very essential applications that schools must have.
Class registration is another kind that would prove to be a good use.
This application lessens the burden for both students and teachers.

III.

Old System
Marvelous College of Technology, Inc. is using the manual registration
system and class scheduling. The student were filled-up a two (2)
pages enrollment form then submit the form at the registrars office,
the staff will then encode all the students data and the students have
2

to wait his schedules for how many days. The school uses it for
almost 5 years and because of the changing technology the school
wanted to have an online registration system. Wherein, the student
can filled-up the form through online and at the same time can print
its schedule. The student can freely choose to what class he will be
joining.

Review of Related Literature

A school is an institution designed for the teaching of students (or
"pupils") under the direction of teachers. Most countries have systems
of formal education, which is commonly compulsory. In these systems,
3

students progress through a series of schools. The names for these

schools vary by country (discussed in the Regional section below), but
generally includeprimary school for young children and secondary
school for teenagers who have completed primary education. An
institution

where higher

education is

taught,

is

commonly

called

a university college or university.

In addition to these core schools, students in a given country may also

attend

schools

before

and

after

primary

and

secondary

education. Kindergarten or pre-school provide some schooling to very

young

children

(typically

ages

35). University, vocational

school, college or seminary may be available after secondary school. A

school may also be dedicated to one particular field, such as a school of
economics or a school of dance. Alternative schools may provide
nontraditional curriculum and methods.

There are also non-government schools, called private schools. Private

schools may be required when the government does not supply
adequate, or special education. Other private schools can also be
religious, such as Christian schools, hawzas, yeshivas, and others; or
schools that have a higher standard of education or seek to foster other

In homeschooling and online schools, teaching and learning take place

outside of a traditional school building.

History and development of schools

The concept of grouping students together in a centralized location for
learning has existed since Classical antiquity. Formal schools have
existed

at

least

Rome (see Education

since ancient
in

Ancient

Greece (see Academy), ancient

Rome) ancient

India (see Gurukul),

and ancient China (see History of education in China). The Byzantine

Empire had an established schooling system beginning at the primary
level. According to Traditions and Encounters, the founding of the
primary

education

system

began

in

425

AD

and

"... military

personnel usually had at least a primary education ...". The sometimes

efficient and often large government of the Empire meant that educated
citizens were a must. Although Byzantium lost much of the grandeur of
Roman culture and extravagance in the process of surviving, the Empire

emphasized efficiency in its war manuals. The Byzantine education

system continued until the empire's collapse in 1453 AD.
Islam was another culture that developed a school system in the modern
sense of the word. Emphasis was put on knowledge, which required a
systematic way of teaching and spreading knowledge, and purpose-built
structures. At first, mosques combined both religious performance and
learning activities, but by the 9th century, the Madrassa was introduced,
a proper school that was built independently from the mosque. They
were also the first to make the Madrassa system a public domain under
the control of the Caliph. The Nizamiyya madrasa is considered by
consensus of scholars to be the earliest surviving school, built towards
1066 AD by Emir Nizam Al-Mulk.

Under the Ottomans, the towns of Bursa and Edirne became the main
centers of learning. The Ottoman system of Klliye, a building complex
containing a mosque, a hospital, madrassa, and public kitchen and
dining areas, revolutionized the education system, making learning
accessible to a wider public through its free meals, health care and
sometimes free accommodation.

The

19th

century

historian,

Scott

holds

that

remarkable

correspondence exists between the procedure established by those

6

institutions and the methods of the present day. They had their
collegiate courses, their prizes for proficiency in scholarship, their
oratorical and poetical contests, their commencements and their
degrees. In the department of medicine, a severe and prolonged
examination, conducted by the most eminent physicians of the capital,
was exacted of all candidates desirous of practicing their profession, and
such as were unable to stand the test were formally pronounced
incompetent.

In Europe, universities emerged

during

the

12th

century;

here, scholasticism was an important tool, and the academicians were

called schoolmen.

During

the Middle

Ages and

much

of

the Early

Modern period, the main purpose of schools (as opposed to universities)

was to teach the Latin language. This led to the term grammar school,
which in the United States informally refers to a primary school, but in
the United Kingdom means a school that selects entrants based on
ability or aptitude. Following this, the school curriculum has gradually
broadened to include literacy in the vernacular language as well as
technical, artistic, scientific and practical subjects.

Obligatory school attendance became common in parts of Europe during

the 18th century. In Denmark-Norway, this was introduced as early as in

1739-1741, the primary end being to increase the literacy of the almue,
i.e. the "regular people".[5] Many of the earlier public schools in the
United States and elsewhere were one-room schools where a single
teacher taught seven grades of boys and girls in the same classroom.
Beginning in the 1920s, one-room schools were consolidated into
multiple classroom facilities with transportation increasingly provided
by kid hacks and school buses.
V. Statement of the Problem
The admission process involves submitting a filled form to the clerk who
verifies the details, fills another manual register, types the information in
an excel file and finally files the filled form in the cabinet. The researcher
seeks to provide solution to the following problems:
1. The students are taking too much time of processing of his/her
registration.
2. The record was kept into folder which cannot accommodate the
growing number of the student.
3. Searching students file will take too long to locate.

Objectives of the Study

This study aims to:

1. To develop a web-based student registration for Marvelous College
of Technology, Inc.,
2. To minimize the paper works and manual record keeping of the
students file. Thus, reduce the wasting time of the students on the
registration process,
3. To design a system that is secured which cannot be modified or
retrieved by unauthorized person,
4. And the system ensures a fast search for specific records.

VII.

Scope and Limitation

The study focused on the web-based system development. The

researcher formulated the scope and limitations of this project to
identify the boundaries of this study.
The scope and limitation of this project is:
1. The system will record all the necessary information with regard
from the students.
2. The system is a username and password protected.
3. The system requires internet connection in accessing to the
system.
4. Only the administrator is capable to edit or modify the records of
the student.
5. The system is not capable of evaluating if the student selects a
conflict schedule.
6. The system would not check whether the student have completed
pre-requisites for a particular course.
