Abstract:

One of the responsibilities of the teachers is to monitor the performances of the students based on their scholastic achievements. However, there are some issues encountered by teachers that need to be addressed such as, having a hard time on some activities including: grouping his/her students due to its large number, recording class participation during class discussion and monitoring their students’ individual performance. To somehow help the teachers solve this problem, the researchers decided to make an application to monitor student academic records by automating the method of recording class participation, applying a class record feature to determine the grades of students and classify them as to who are the fast or slow learners. Experimental research method and Spiral process model were used throughout the study. This method is done by comparing two variables in relation to the changes of the other. The researchers conducted a survey in UIC ITE faculty to assess how the application affected their way of monitoring students’ records. Researchers concluded that application for monitoring student academic records is an effective tool for monitoring students in a certain class.
