Case
study 3:
Your high school offers
"community school" classes after school hours. The majority of the
programs are adult continuing education such as computer courses, personal
finance, dancing, yoga and photography. The director of these programmes is
having a hard time getting the recordkeeping done. Most of the records and
course matching is done using spread sheets. A modernization effort is
underway, which includes building integrated application and database systems
to perform basic business functions. The director has asked for your team to
provide her with a functional system model and design with commentary about
potential issues that could arise with the systems.
This systems
need to include the following functions:
·
information about the courses
·
information about the students
·
information about the instructors
·
information about the section of the
course
·
information about the fees
·
information about the schedule
The director would like to develop
the system that meets the following goals
·
An online inquiry system for potential
students to use that identifies what courses are available- search by keyword,
instructor, and day offered; function for student information gathering for follow
-up calls, and basic community school information.
·
Limits updating the system to director
only improve the process of identifying what courses are available.
·
Maintains and creates unique reports of
the schedules (with the appropriate details for each) for the student
instructor, and director each of the three report types would be different.
Allows simple maintenance to be handled by the
director.
