Introduction:
People nowadays are living in an information age dependent upon digital information. Digital information is electronic information, the result of computer processing. Each type of job relies upon getting information, using it, managing it, and relaying information to others. Computer enable the efficient processing and storage of information.
A grading system plays a key role in the management system of any school. But, such systems do not often relate expectations, outcomes and performance. As each student desires to achieve a good score for each assignment, exam, project and/or report, the whole process adds a heavy work load for teachers in order to make their evaluation fair, comprehensive, and accurate. From the faculty perspective, these are necessary to avoid disagreement from students and parents.
Grading system are designed to provide incentives for achievement and assist in identifying problem area of a student. It is the most commonly used means of analyzing student performance, talents, and skills. Student’s grades are vital information needed in advancing to the next grade/year level and its accuracy is very important.
The proponents of this study wish to reduce the workload of teachers by eliminating the need for manual computation and recording of each grade. The common problems encountered in manual recording and computation are error-and-file-handling, and redundancy. As the work load gradually increases with growing amounts of grades and student lists that need to be attended, it becomes tedious on the part of the teacher to proficiently manage them in time for documentation and file submission to higher education authorities.
