Introduction

Background of the Study

Computer technology has been widely used in different fields, nowadays; computer is

the main system that is being used from large and wide scale manufacturing up to small

scale industries. The defining feature of modern computers which distinguishes them

from all other machines is that they can be programmed. That is to say that some type

of instructions (the program) can be given to the computer and it will process them.

While some computers may have strange concepts “instructions” and “output”, modern

computers based on the von Neumann architecture often have machine code in the

form of an imperative programming language.

Information systems are distinct from information technology in that an information

system is typically seen as having an Information and Communication Technology

component. Information systems help to control the performance of business

processes. An information system is a work system whose activities are devoted to

processing (capturing, transmitting, storing, retrieving, manipulating and displaying)

information.

Enrolment system is the must have system in a school. When a student is enrolling the

school requires all the necessary information of the student. When the school retrieves

the important information from the student, the encoder now should input the details of

the student in the enrolment system. In the enrolment system, the school can trace what

are the standings of the students. The data of the student are inserted in the enrolment
system it includes subjects, section, etc. Lack of enrolment system in a school it can

lead to chaos and troubles, the students will be confuse on what they should do and

how they will do to be able to enrol. It is extremely useful in the school in the way of

making the processes of enrolling much easy.

Batuan Elementary School is publicly managed. But, their enrollment system on the

said school is still in manual or through texting. The manual enrollment system was too

slow and too difficult for the school to manage hundreds of records of the students and

at the same time, it is too difficult for the student to wait and stand for a long time just to

be enrolled because of their manual process. The purpose of this case study is to

update the manual process into an automated system, which is easy to perform any

transactions on their business.

Objectives of the study

The general objective of this study is to offer the school with a modernized and

computer-based enrollment system. With this innovation, it will surely improve the

efficiency of the enrollment process. The proponents’ goal is to make the Batuan

Elementary School enrollment system shorten the time required, provide accurate

database and secured information. Specific Objective The interviews and research

conducted by the proponents helped in pin pointing these exact areas that this study

aims to focus on:

1. To provide a computer-based system that will help the school in keeping and

maintaining updated records.

2. To lessen the amount of time that they spend on the enrollment process.
 3. The school will have efficient enrollment system that will lessen the time that it

takes to be a student of the school.

4. An environmental friendly enrollment process because the enrollment system will

reduce the needs for paper.

5. Accurate and updated information the enrollment system will automatically do the

job for data storage.

6. The data about enrollment will be highly secured because the system can only
be accessed by the administrator

Hypothesis of the Study

With the respect to the research problem, the researchers asserts a hypothesis that;

1. There is no significant difference when implementing an Enrollment System to

Batuan Elementary School.

Theoretical Framework

This study is focused on the System Theory, which states that, "A System refers to any

collection or combination of programs, procedures data and equipment utilized in

processing information". A system is mainly made up of three components that

represent the units of analysis or the variables under study. As the result of the study, it

represents Input as the Independent Variable (IV), the Process, as the Intervening

Variable (ITV), and the Output as the Dependent Variable (DV).

The upper portion of the paradigm (shown on Figure 1.0) clearly illustrates how the

existing system will be processed. The materials used in the traditional method, which is

a manual way of recording files using the pen, pencils, papers and columnar notebooks
serves as the input; and the manager being able to get the incoming files of the clients

serves as the output.

The lower portion of the paradigm illustrates how the proposed system will be

processed. It illustrates the new method of recording files through the use of a

computer, which serves as the input; the process is automated and is therefore faster,

more efficient and easier to work with. The administrator can now get the recorded files

faster by inputting the records.

Tom DeMarco & Tim Lister of Peopleware, 2nd Edition, Dorset House (1:58) cited that

“Companies that sensibly manage their investment in people will prosper in the long

run" The author stated that if companies manage investment in people wisely, it will

reap the rewards in the future as the company grows. It will succeed in the long run

because the people within the company are the ones contributing to the growth of the

company. Thus entails the importance of taking care of the people within the company.

Conceptual Framework

The success in goal setting and achieving by which an institution functions depends to

an important degree on how strong each and every member of the organization is

committed to institutional objectives, and how cooperatively the administration, faculty

and employees work together for the accomplishment of the reselected missions and

objectives.

The study being presented is set offered by the school towards it direct client’s plays a

vital role in the institutional management system. It deals with the delicate task of

handling school records and other pertinent and relevant information of the school. It
aims to attain its maximum strength of workability and responsibility towards the

administration, faculty and employees, students, parents and the whole school

community as well. The process of execution is geared towards the attainment of the

development goals of the institution. It is the goal of the school to serve its clients and

the institution as well with the fullest degree of service and to enrich the conditions of

life, work and high morale of personnel established from a strong base of sincerity,

dedication and hard work of all concerned.

It is undeniable that institutional management system needs change, considering the

fast-changing technology and educational management styles these days. In the

operational management process of the establishment, there is a must for a continuous

re-evaluation and the growing complexities of today’s institutional management

systems. Results of the research will serve as valuable guide for improving the school

management, and serve as needed indicators in accumulating the needs of the

students.

As shown in the schema, the student’s information, enrollment form and the

administrator are inputted in coming up with the desired outputs which the improvement

of the school information management systems by the use of student portal. The

process focuses on how student being enrolled process.

Figure 1.0 Schematic Diagram of the Conceptual Framework of the Study

That the schematic diagram above shown will provide a better and easier way for the

enrollees to transact to their records during enrollment system which is being managed

by the facilitators of the enrollment system. The facilitators will now be more comfortable

because their enormous works will be minimizing during enrollment because of fast and

easy way of enrollment process.

And also it helps school manage various operations including data, administrative and

fundraising operations. Student may inquire on matters related to admission and

enrollment requirements. These systems help to assists the students in their

educational needs.
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

Education is very important to every person that is why a good enrollment system

is needed. This can be serves as the basis of each student who wants to enroll in

school. The child including their parent might be glad if they feel and see the beauty of

the service in school through the enrollment. If parents feel not so comfortable with the

school because of very long and time-consuming enrollment procedure then they might

confused if they still want their child to enroll.

Through these proposed system, it would be beneficial to the following:

The Institution

The main beneficiary of the study is Batuan Elementary School would be adapting the

new innovation of technology through web that will make their work with optimum

performance.

Registrar Office

With regards to the registrar’s office the proposed system will help the school in

maintaining the data of the students and the school will not use the manual data

gathering. The staff will just need to check the database for the records needed.

Proponents

The proponents would also be a beneficiary of the study since the proponents would

value the importance of enhancing their skills and work performance while grasping

knowledge throughout the study.

The proposed system will able to minimize the time and effort that it takes to process

student’s enrollment. Also it is beneficial to the parents because it will help them lessen

the time it takes to find appropriate class for their children.

Online student enrollment system

Patrick HH Then Proceedings of the 34th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference:

expanding the boundaries, 393-396, 2006

Our Online student enrollment system enables students to enroll into their subjects prior

to the commencement of their semesters. This enrollment system not only allows

international students to enroll through internet without traveling to the campus but also

incorporates the business rules. These business rules cover a wide range of regulations

and policy such as subject pre-requisite, student’s payment status, course coordinator’s

decision and the correspondence of students’ seniority to the intended enrolling

subjects. The interface auto-detects the user’s device either PC/laptop or much smaller

screen device such as PDA. In short, the enrollment system backend engine runs

based on the business rules and front-end engine runs to provide high satisfaction user

experience. https://scholar.google.com/scholar?

Users’ Acceptance of Online Enrollment Processes in a Higher Education

Luis F Rodriguez SFERC 2014, 129, 2014

Little is known about acceptance of online enrollment processes. Satisfaction is part of

the assessment, but evidence suggests that administrators are oriented to retention and
graduation rates instead of user perceptions. This study validated a tool that enables

the measurement of online enrollment processes by the analysis of perceptions. Little is

known about the acceptance of the online enrollment processes (Noel-Levitz, 2010).

Educators and administrators must understand how students perceive online enrollment

processes but they are focused on the development of online education programs.

Online education is the subject of research, but online enrollment and other ancillary

services have received little scholarly attention because they are considered operational

activities. A standardized tool that enables the academic administrators to evaluate

online enrollment processes as the business component of an online education program

does not exist.

Materials and methods on digital enrollment system for educational institutions

Marjorie Chamilco, Alex Pacheco, Cesar Peñaranda, Edwin Felix, Mario Ruiz Materials

Today: Proceedings, 2021

The enrollment process of an educational institution becomes very complex when the

waiting time is prolonged and crowds of people are created. Technological tools are the

most effective way to deal with this problem. Therefore, this research seeks to optimize

the processes that make up the enrollment management of an educational institution

through the implementation of a digital enrollment system. The development of the

digital enrollment system was divided into four phases. Planning: Where the system
requirements were described. Design: A simple model was chosen according to the

established requirements. Coding: Programming languages were used that helped in

the structure, customization and operation of the system. Test: The system was verified

for errors. In this sense, the digital enrollment process was optimized, such as student

enrollment, registration and reports, allowing the reduction of crowds, time and human

effort. It allowed collaborative work at a distance between the institution and the

students, being a technological and innovative aid that reduces the time of the

enrollment processes, in an equitable and transparent way, guaranteeing freedom of

choice and equal access opportunities to remote education in times of pandemic.

GARCIA, RHOEL ANTHONY G TORRES

The pandemic crisis brought a multitude of challenges in every higher educational

institution for the reason that the national government imposed different restrictions and

health protocols.Hence, this study aimed to determine the predicaments, situations, and

experiences of students specifically in terms of the online enrollment process of Nueva

Ecija University of Science and Technology for the academic year 2020–2021. The
researchers of this study used a descriptive method of research to assess the feedback

of 1,078 students in terms of the system’s functionality, reliability, usability, efficiency,

maintainability, and portability. The results have shown that the students found the

system very good in terms of its functionality, reliability, usability, efficiency,

maintainability, and portability and only good concerning its efficiency. This means that

the system provides a high level of quality and requires minimal rectifications for

improvement. In that case, the researchers suggested improving the system in terms of

efficiency which is about the use of possible input to produce a quality and highest

possible amount of output. https://scholar.google.com/scholar?

Online processing is one of the many advantages of the use of internet technology.

Enrollment procedures in many universities not only in the Philippines usually done in

manual process even with the advent of internet and with many sophisticated

technologies. The purpose of this study is to design and develop an Online Registration

and Grade Evaluation System in advancing the Pre-Enrollment Procedure. The system

can help improve student’s registration, grade evaluation and record keeping system of

Bulacan State University, one of the Universities in the Philippines. The system can

provide online registration of students, viewing of grades through their personal

faculty members and students, online evaluation of grades using the subject pre-

requisite system and printing of evaluation certificates and grade checklist of the

students. The developed system can help the different Colleges of the University in

terms of their enrollment procedure which can minimize inaccuracies and errors.

An enrollment system help and provide efficient and reliable services to the

students, enrolment personnel and administration. Moreover, this system improved the

process of enrolment in terms of searching, retrieving and subject schedules. (Lopez,

2005)

Many problems and difficulties were identified in the existing system of Dagupan

City National High School (DCNHS). These major concerns are affecting the efficient

enrolment system of students. Security of the students records were found to be at high

risk. The current system may fail to protect some important documents. It has also

untimely and inefficient report generation. A computerized system for DCNHS shall

result to a significant increase in the number of enrollees. (Cayabyab, 2007)

In educational institutions like Harvent School in Dagupan City, Composed of

elementary and high school level. The school puts premium to its registration. The

enrollment process is the initial stage in gathering bon fide and accurate student

information necessary to establish student permanent records. A registration and billing

system is needed by the institution to address the statedsituation. The study has been

made to help Harvent School gather fast anddeliver accurate information (Calabozo&

Fernandez, 2006).

Based on the researcher, a web-based enrolment system for Ven'tas Parochial

School (VPS) in Manila was developed to help its students enroll in a more efficient way

without the hassles of waiting long hours in filling out forms, which sometimes become
redundant, or to stand in line and pay at the cashier. It is with the Web-based Enrolment

System for VPS that this new style of enrolment may be achieved. This new type of

system offers its students newoptions for enrolling at VPS. By logging on to VPS

website, one can register and enroll subjects for a school year. With these, all the

students are required to fill out certain forms that do not take more than a few minutes

to accomplish. The system stores its records in the school database for future

references.

Confirmation of the transaction made by the students need to be verified,

thepayment of tuition fees must be made in the school's registrar. The students may

also browse the web site of VPS and he can check his current account. He can also

refer to the list of the school current tuition fee rates (Pascual&Riceo, 2008).

implement. Updating and checking of faculty and students Information was inspired by

the advancement of modern technology. The researchers gathered data necessary in

the scheduling system for the success of the study providing benefit of the employees

and students so they can have access and have access and have the ability to manage

information directly and conveniently. (Koft, 2007)

A Local Area Network Enrollment System (LANES) is a broad system. It isa

combination of different function areas such as databases, searching, retrieval,and

update of student records, checking of student's schedule, computation offees.

(Dzubeck, Frank, 2003).

Synthesis

The above mentioned concepts on the computerization of enrollment system is relevant

to the present project because these serve as foundation in the development of an

enrollment system for the School that will minimize the time consumed and effort

exerted by the staff in updating student records and record keeping. The concepts also

point to the features of the present study as the database maintenance will be

integrated by the developers in the proposed system.

METHODOLOGY

The research is adopted to a descriptive method. This employs the systems analyses

method oriented towards computer approach likewise with the utilization of

questionnaire on the survey of the information flow within the organization.

Research Design

This study will use the descriptive-survey of research, utilizing the questionnaire as the

main gathering tool, which will be supported by relevant confidential information based

on interview and observation. This method will be used because it is a status survey

that will reveal the conditions and relations of the different processes and persons

involved with the proposed system.

Respondent of the Study

The respondent of the study will be the Administrators, faculty and the students of

Batuan Elementary School in Batuan Pototan, Iloilo. They should be known all the

information involved in the system. Wherein, the researcher prepares a set of carefully

prepared and logically ordered questions. This respondent focuses on the

employees/staff and students for they are very important in a sense that this study is all

about them.

Sampling Method

The sampling method will be used in this study to collect data from participants is the

stratified random sampling. Stratified random sampling is a method of sampling that

involves dividing a population into smaller groups–called strata whereas the groups or
strata are organized based on the shared characteristics or attributes of the members in

the group (Nickolas, S 2021).

Data Gathering Instrument

These are the instruments or tools for gathering data in research used as basis for

drawing conclusions or making inferences. Some of these tools are questionnaires,

interviews, research and analysis used by the researcher as they will conduct the

proposed study.

Validity and Reliability

To validate the research materials in this study, the materials was submitted to the

experts in the field of research which are the research professor and the research

adviser. Validity is probably the single most important aspect of the design of any

measurement of the instrument educational research (Muijih, 2004).

The questionnaire which is the main gathering tool in this study was submitted to the

research professor and adviser to see the appropriateness and meaningfulness of every

research questions. The comments and suggestions of the professor for the

improvement of the materials were followed and applied.

As the validity was established, reliability testing followed. Reliability of instrument is

needed to make sure that the instrument can be consistent if used in other time. The

researchers made a test-retest consist of multiple questions, and then the researchers

disseminate it to administrators, faculty and the students.

Data Gathering Procedure

The questions created were established to the Google form and answered by the target

respondents. In answering the questionnaire, the respondents are asked to choose one
option by giving mark (X) or checklist (√).The data collected from the form was tallied

and prepared for the data analysis. The responds will be use for the basis on

implementing and constructing the enrolment system.

Data Analysis

In this research, all the data gained from the result of the questionnaire will be analyze

and studied. The responds will determine if the proposed enrolment system will be

aligned or match with respondents available resources for online transactions to the

community’s available funds.
