Design information seating chart system in classroom with wireless sensor network

Abstract

The seating chart created in the classroom is one way for teachers in the class to remember students’ names one by one and by remembering students’ names, it means there is a teacher concern [4][5]. In addition it becomes the basis for developing sense of community in classroom [4][5]. In this paper discusses combination of computers and wireless sensors to make information seating chart system digitally in classroom. The system will be updated automatically if a student sits down a seat. Sensor section was placed to the student’s seat and server section was used to display seating chart to teacher. It was working as planned. This was evidenced by the stored data (the seat’s number and RFID code of the student’s card) into the MySQL database on the server. The future work will create a Graphical User Interface to be installed the server, so that teacher will use it easy.
