Discipline: Education

 

Abstract:

Rising requisites demanding correct and real-time information, data monitoring and tracking systems have become essential to educational institutions, particularly because attendance monitoring is vital for academic performance, safety, and communication. In contrast, traditional methods of monitoring students have been treated with concern, elevating the urgency of developing an innovative solution that would integrate real-time tracking and data management. The study designed, developed, and evaluated an online student monitoring and data tracking system for Isulan National High School. Using Agile, the system was developed over seven sprints, applying features like data security, attendance monitoring, and reporting. It was evaluated by teachers, parents, and students through perception, and overall, the respondents rated it as very functional, usable, and effective. The results showed an average score of 4.72 +- 0.43, and 95% of respondents believed that the system is effective in improving student monitoring and tracking. There was no significant difference in the assessments between each of the groups; F(3,76) = 0.29, p = 0.83.
