COMPUTERIZATION OF COMPUTER SCIENCE STUDENTS RESULT

CHAPITER 1

Introduction 1.1 Study Background

Any educational institution must have effective teaching as its main goal, and this teaching must be evaluated over time.

It is expected that the results of assessments, such as tests, quizzes, term papers, lab work, exhibitions, and end-of-semester exams, will be released on time so that the students can gauge their performance.

Parents also require the results of their children in order for them to know how well they are performing academically, which will enable them to advise their children meaningfully in their performance. Academic advisers use the results of students to monitor their academic progress and this will guide them in advising them to change departments or change their study pattern.

The importance of students’ outcomes cannot be overemphasized, therefore they should be prepared as best as possible. In the event of a transfer, the receiving university will want to know the institution.

Processing has been discovered to be at its most advantageous in the processing and storing of findings in this era of computerization.

This is a result of a variety of qualities and benefits related to its dependability, adaptability, processing speed, and capacity. Therefore, software can be created using computer systems to replace manual result processing, which has already seen a lot of computational errors during processing.

In order to demonstrate how findings can be processed utilizing computer systems in institutes of higher learning, this research activity aims to encourage assistance. This project will result in a distinct and useful result sheet format that higher education institutions can use.

1.2 THE STUDY’S AIM AND OBJECTIVE.

The study’s goal is to develop a common format for the computerization and processing of student results and how to do so for adoption by institutions of higher learning (such as universities). The computer program required to produce these results will also include an intriguing summary that will reveal the student’s final grade before leaving the institution.

AIM: – To assure correctness in the results computation.

To reduce errors and maximize efficiency

To make results computation in institutions easier,

1.3 Study’s Purpose and Limitations

The case study for this research was the Department of Computer Science at Federal Polytechnic Nekede in Owerri. The computational technique was based on these institutions’ general and academic rules.

The project is restricted to the use of the Pascal programming language because it is used to compute all necessary averages, sort the results of the students, and grade them.

The software can also be expanded to other departments running a year-long program, even though sample results were obtained from the federal polytechnic in Nekede Owerri’s department of computer science. To make the department using the software run more smoothly, the software’s databases should be properly updated.

Once more, it is important to remember that this program complies with all academic and general federal polytechnic nekede requirements. Other universities might not be able to use it since they might use a different grading scheme.

1.4 THE MEANING OF THE STUDY

to raise awareness that computers can be used in universities to process results rather than manual processing in order to ensure accuracy and processing speed.
