Abstract
The efficiency in the academic and administrative procedures of higher education clearly marks competitive advantage in aspects of quality, which consists in the continuous improvement and improvement for the achievement of educational objectives. In our institution, the syllabus treatment is currently carried out manually, delaying many educational processes. Therefore, it is proposed to innovate through a software architecture approach based on the standard “ISO/IEC/ IEEE 42010: Systems and software engineering - Architecture Description” to describe the architecture Syllabus Management System software. It is developed in three stages: Analysis, Design and Verification. This will allow professors to develop their research, training, teaching and presentation of timely reports, with the measurement of achieved skills and abilities of students, managers and academic authorities, and to make decisions based on the results obtained by the tool allowing an improvement in the quality of the contents and development flow of the syllabus.
Highlights
The syllabus is a plan for teaching and learning, as it contains the important meaning between the professor and students
The “Universidad Católica de Santa María” (UCSM) has obtained the ISO 9001 standard for its quality management systems (QMS) in order to meet the needs of customers and stakeholders
The objective is to use the guide of the ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010 standard to obtain a good software architecture in the management of syllabus in the university
Summary
The syllabus is a plan for teaching and learning, as it contains the important meaning between the professor and students. The architecture description can be modeled using the ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010 standard that allows for alternative options and decisions to be selected, where the rationale and trade-offs for each decision are documented and understood as necessary to inform subsequent decisions to stakeholders [5] These concerns combined with the environment and system scenarios provide an architectural design context that clarifies the motivation to make decisions. The measurements of skills and abilities achieved by students, managers and academic authorities are included in the proposal as well as to make decisions based on the results obtained This tool helps to get an improvement in the quality of the contents and development flow of the syllabus through an intuitive and friendly system.
