Web-based smart attendance monitoring system using QR code and GSM module for SMS notificatio

Abstract

The study was designed and developed to address certain problems and concerns of the school administration and parents of students attending Ciriaco Mariano Elementary School. The system was used to provide the school an innovative way to record attendance of students, provide parents with real time updates regarding the entry and exit of their children in the school premises, and be able to monitor students by generating attendance reports. The Web-based Smart Attendance Monitoring System using QR code and GSM module for SMS notification was developed through the implementation of the Iterative System Development Life Cycle Model. This iterative model ensures that the web-based system conformed to the all of the requirements from the CMES and of the requirements set by the ISO 25010 criteria. To assess the quality of the developed web-based system, the researcher adapted the ISO 25010 Software Quality Standard as evaluation tool. Two sets of questionnaires were developed and were given to respondents who were selected using purposive sampling. The first set of questionnaires were given to IT experts to assess the technical qualities of the system which includes functional suitability, performance efficiency, compatibility, usability, reliability, security, maintainability, and portability. The second set of questionnaires were given to the school principal, teachers, and parents to assess the web-based system quality on selected criteria which includes functional suitability, performance efficiency, and usability. The Web-based Smart Attendance Monitoring System using QR code and GSM module for SMS notification was successfully developed using the iterative SDLC model and found conformed to the ISO 25010 software quality standards as implied by the results from the evaluation of IT experts, school principal, teachers, and parents.
