The expected result is a Computerized Students' Scholarship Information Management System that will minimize the time delay for giving scholarship, facilitate quick information processing and provide easy access to scholarship documentation.
CHAPTER ONE
1.1 Introduction
Students' scholarship is a form of financial assistance given to individuals intended to be used for the sustainability of educators who are required, scholarships can be provided by government agencies, companies or foundations. The scholarship student involvement is the most important part of a student institute or a foundation. After the scholarship students complete their education, they begin their voyage in the corporate world. Many types of scholarship student a lot to the kind of education, grooming, opportunities, co-curricular activities and events provide by their college. Many scholarship students like to come back to their college that has been a very important part of their memory. They like to give back to their college by giving their valuable time. The system for applying the scholarship is manual for the student in the existing system. To avoid the manual system this proposed system develops the application for scholarship on the basis of cast category, academic performance and social status. In this system student can apply scholarship using this portal where they can upload the proof and photo in this application (Sowndhariyaa et al., 2021).
As a prelude to other parts of this study, this chapter will discuss the background upon which this study was initiated, the statement of problems that led to this study, the Aim and Objectives of the study. Others are Significance of the study, Scope of work, Limitations of the Study and Definition of technical terms.
1.2 Background of Study
Education system forms the backbone of every nation. And hence it is important to provide a strong educational foundation to the young generation to ensure the development of open-minded global citizens securing the future for everyone. Advanced technology available today can play a crucial role in streamlining education-related processes to promote solidarity among students, teachers, parents and the school staff.
Education is central to development. It is one of the most powerful instruments for reducing poverty and inequality and lays a foundation for sustained economic growth. With this aim currently our government has given special emphasis to the educational sector and school improvement activities such as continuous professional development for teachers, training and upgrading teachers and capacitating schools with manpower and materials are among the major actions which have been taken in both primary and secondary schools. In order to facilitate and simplify these actions one of the major tool is to have automated school management system.
School Scholarship Management System consists of tasks such as registering students, attendance record keeping to control absentees, producing report cards, producing official transcript, preparing timetable and producing different reports for teachers, parents, officials from kebele or kefle ketema education bureaus and other stakeholders.
Automation is the utilization of technology to replace human with a machine that can perform more quickly and more continuously. By automating SMS documents that took up many large storage rooms can be stored on few disks. Transcript images can be annotated. It reduces the time to retrieve old transcripts from hours to seconds. However, the school system in the government schools of Addis Ababa is not automated and the record officers generate transcripts and reports manually and the school administrators use their experienced knowledge of miss and hit approaches to prepare timetables.
