Educational Assisting System for On-line Checking and Retrieval Using Client/Server Technology : Case Study of Faculty of Engineering, Kasetsart University

Abstract

The aim of this research is to develop an examining system of students' registration to protect the rule violation problems, such as taking two subjects where one is prerequisite of the other, in the same semester. Another problem is taking unrequired courses more than those stated in the academic rules causing the total units of unrequired courses over those of required courses. In the former system, the advisors checked various problems by themselves which was time consuming. This developing system will help the advisors to reduce not only time wasted in examining the registration but also errors which may occur. Moreover advisors can check the status of their students at any time because the system provides academic information such as current GPA of each semester, accumulation of GPA , amount of total credits classified into unrequired and required courses.
