DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF WEB BASED REGISTRATION PORTAL
ABSTRACT
The design and implementation of a web based registration portal for Cadets of NDA is a process of nation building and should not be undermined. In view of this, there is a need to bring the numerous application received under control to avoid a total collapse of the process. Nevertheless, it has become vital for both the proposed cadets and the Nigeria Defense Academy (NDA) users to team up and make use of the system. Information concerning this work will be obtained through questionnaire, oral interview and observation. Based on this information, the researcher will be able to identify what kinds of design and implementation techniques used for the registration of cadets online for the National Defense Academy of Nigeria. It is expected that at the end all students will appreciate the online registration, the records it provides for the development of Nigeria Defense Academy. To successfully carry out this study, the write-up is divided into five chapters. First chapter is the introductory chapter which discuss among others, the background of study, statement of research problems, significance of the study, scope of the study and definition of terms. However, it is hoped that this research work will contribute in no small way towards solving the design and implementation of an online portal registration in Nigeria Defense Academy (NDA), Kaduna, Nigeria.
CHAPTER ONE
Introduction
1.1 Background Of The Study
The term portal is known as links page which presents information from diverse sources in a unified way. It may contain services that provide standard search engine feature, e-mail, news, information, databases and entertainment. Portals provide a way for enterprises to provide a consistent look and feel with access control and procedures for multiple applications and databases, which otherwise would have been different entities altogether.
Electronic registration or e-registration, web based registration or even online registration is a secure website that cadets can enter to apply to join the Nigeria Defense Academy. Cadets can access the e-registration site from anywhere with an internet connection. Mostly these sites are portals.
Pena-Lopez (2007) describes a web portal as a site that functions as a point of access to information on the World Wide Web and portals present information from diverse sources.
The Google directory describes the term portal as where users control the content. There are several terms in library and information science and indeed IT that have their origins borrowed from other disciplines and a portal is one of such (Brakel, 2003). It must be borne in mind that the Web, a resource of the Internet, and a tool to browse the Internet is the first ever innovation that allows anyone to publish to a vast number of users via the Internet. The portal in this context, is more than a gateway, it is a hub from which users can locate all the Web content commonly needed (Nielsen, 1999). The portal is a platform for organizations − universities, colleges, companies to leverage and for efficient communication and other in-house operations. Put more simply a portal collates ”• a variety of useful information into a single, one-stop' web-page, helping the user to avoid being overwhelmed by infoglut' or feeling lost on the web (Looney and Lyman 2000 33). However, the Internet (Internet gateways or libraries) are not focused on internal enterprise functions. Reasons why organizations have a portal according to (source) include: Information customization:
Information personalization: Efficiency in accessing information (work flow): Link integrity software issues that link work: Enhancements and features such as calendars, to do lists, schedules, hours of operation, discussion groups and chat, announcements and alerts, job openings, career opportunities, reports and documents, search, emails, course schedules, grades, CPGAs (Cumulative Point Grade Average), transcripts, campus and world news, links to reference materials, bookmarks, etc. (Brakel, 2003). The roles that a portal supports includes those of proposed cadets, different faculties in the NDA, provosts, academic departments, IT facilities, scholars, researchers, prospective students, alumni, visitors, friends and vendors.
(Katz, 2002).
1.2 Statement Of The Problems
The purpose of this study is to develop a web based Registration Portal for Cadets of the NDA that offer a solution to the problems of the cadets’ registration currently in the institution. The purpose of this study is aimed to solve the following problems:
- The registration problem due to some manual means of operations which easily lead to misplacement or loss of student information.
- The manual pre-assessment of student registration system is very slow and consumes a lot of time which causes the delay in completing the entire enrolment process.
- Consume time and human effort due to long queue in the process of paying money in the bank and registration processes.
- Due to manual means of generating report, such report can easily be misplaced or loss.
The outcomes from this study will assist the NDA to know whether or not the problems of manual handling of students' registration and mismanagement records have been overcome.
The level of acceptance and use of e-registration by the proposed cadets’ of the university that will be unraveled in this study will provide a framework for the improvement of e-registration at the university from which other universities in the country can copy to improve their own e-registration exercise.
1.3 Aim And Objectives Of The Study
The purpose of this study is to prefer solution to the above stated problems being faced and to develop a web based online registration portal for Nigeria Defense Academy, using HTML, CSS & PHP to develop each web page and MYSQL as the database for storage of information on the website.
The objectives are as below:
- To have an effective way of cadets aspiring to join the Nigeria Defense Academy with necessary information such as course information and exam information or notification anywhere and anytime to the students about rapid changes of schedule.
- To improve the privacy, user-friendliness and to enable convenient access to the different kinds of information and services mounted on the web by users, it would be desirable to set up a portal for channeling the vast information resources to the different users in an efficient and effective manner.
- To create an online Course Portal which provides a pre-assessment module that allow courses verification for cadets when login on the website. In addition, the course portal can also automatically evaluate and showcase the report of courses of the cadets.
1.4 Significance Of The Study
1. To the Cadets,
Through this system, the proposed cadets will be able to use the Online Registration Portal effective for their online registration process especially for registering their personal information, courses registration and exam registration.
