1.3 Objectives
The general objective is to develop, design and implement a GuidanceInformation and Monitoring System
in TUP-Taguig Campus.
1.3.2 Specific Objectives:
1.3.2.1. To develop a system that will give detailedinformation of the students such as basic information,
educational background and parents information
.
1.3.2.4. To create a module that will trace employed andunemployed alumni of TUPT.
1.3.2.5. To test and evaluate the effectiveness of theproject study in terms of implementation.
This project study aims to develop a Guidance Information andMonitoring System that will help the
university to have an easier management
on students records.

The system will give benefit to the university, especially guidance officebecause the system will provide a
secure and an automated records keepingsystem for creating records. It will provide an up-to-date and
accurate recordof students and will resolve the possibility of losing the information because ithas
database. It will track students' offenses and attendance. The system will
also offer easily retrieval of records and generates report such as students
information, disciplinary action records and attendance monitoring sheetinformation.The system will give
benefit to the faculty because it will giveconvenient in passing student attendance
and it can easily track the students
status regarding with their attendance.The system will give benefit to the students because it will
providesufficient information about the Guidance office such as their services and
hierarchy and theyll be aware of committing offense because theyll receive a
notification from the Guidance.

1.6 SWOT ANALYSIS
SWOT Analysis is useful method for understanding the Strengths andWeaknesses, and identifying the
Opportunities and Threats of the
project. Analyzing using the SWOT framework will help the researchers make attentioninto the areas
where the system is strong and where the greatest opportunitieslie. Strengths and weaknesses are often
internal to your project, whileopportunities and threats generally relate to external issues.
The TUP-T Guidance Information and Monitoring System face several of these variables and are shown
in Table 1.

AnalysisTable 1.6.1 shows the TUP-T GIMS SWOT analysis. In project strengths,the researchers
consider from both an internal outlook, and from the point of viewof the client, the Guidance office. One of
the strengths of this project is the easeof managing and
accessing students information because
they will provide asearch function to find an existing record of a student. The system can monitor
student
s record and determine their status regarding to the offenses theycommit. In terms of
projects weaknesses
, the database cannot be accessedwhen the system is down because it uses MySQL. User can only
access your
10
data by Windows command. To access the system in the Guidance office, itrequires to network the
University. A useful approach when looking at opportunities is to look at your strengths and ask yourself
whether these open up any opportunities. One of the
highlight of our projects opportunities is its a good asset to stand out against
other universities because as stated earlier that others are made by an It expertand not by their students.
Next is the contribution in TUP-T growth and success,as we all know TUP-T is not in a high-end level, so
this project will help for theproductivity and infrastructure of the university. And for the threats, piracy is
nowsevere in our country, viruses and hackers are inevitable.
A conceptual framework is very useful in a research to outline the possibleprocesses. It illustrates how
and why a project takes place, and about how weunderstand its activities. An indication of designs and
practices that shape theway work is done in a project.The diagram 1.7.1 illustrates the Input-Process-
Output concept of TUP-TGuidance Information and Monitoring System. The input framework is
composedof requirements in terms of the user, software and hardware. The user requirements consist of
the ID number and password of the authorized personnelsuch as the Guidance Center. The system will
run in an Operating system thatmust be Windows XP or higher, XAMPP version 5.2x or higher and a
webbrowser (Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Google Chrome). The processframework is composed
of 6 processes, the problem identification, datagathering, design and procedure, design development,
testing and evaluationand system implementation. If the process 1
5 is successfully done it willprecede to the last process, if not it will proceed to the process 3 and lastly

Electronic Student Profile, or ESP, is an online system thatmanages student records and enables the
parents to keep in touch with their
childs performance and development at
the school. It is the first onlinestudent profile system in Australian public schools for the primary-levels. It
compiles the entire students
data in all Australian public schools and acts asa central Student Profile System. Although this kind of
system will need aquite amount of time to be finished and implemented, external cooperation iscritical for
this system. The main page contains a brief explanation of the system.

3.2. Sample and Sampling Technique
The researchers randomly selected 50 respondents for thestudy and a formal interview to the guidance
counselor. Calderon ( 1993 )defined Sampling as measuring a part of population and making a
generalreport about the whole. Under the Descriptive Research Method, thetechniques used are the face-
to-face interview and the survey method.
Face-to-face interview is the most widely used in the research of any topic andbased on a direct meeting
between interviewer and interviewee while thesurvey is collecting measurable information to find the
condition of therespondents with an accurate interpretation. The researchers used the twomethods
because in those methods it can easily display their point of viewcomfortably.
Theyre
using the Guidance counselor as a respondent from theTUP-T Guidance Office in the first method, the
face-to-face interview and thestudents of TUP-T in the second method, the survey, in order to
gather relevant data; the descriptive method is then appropriate as this can allow theidentification of
interviewee answers. For this research, two types of datawere gathered. These included the primary and
secondary data types. Theprimary data were derived from the answers of the interviewee gave duringthe
interview process. The secondary data on the other hand, were obtainedfrom published documents and
literatures that were relevant to TUPT-GIMS. Additionally, the development of the system and the
design, theresearchers used PHP for their front-end, MYSQL for the back-end, and somepicture editing
application software like Paint, Adobe Photoshop, andMacromedia Fireworks, Flash and Dreamweaver.

3.3. Research Instrument and Technique
The survey questionnaire was used to gather the data to drawconclusions. This instrument was validated
by the specialist and experts thatsuit the needs of the study. Likewise, it was item analyze to infer
thecomponents needed for the study, in the same manner to relate theobjectives. In addition, some tools
are interviews, observations, research andanalysis used in the study.
3.3.1. Research.
Research is the systematic search for related information ona specific topic or problem. The research
materials are drawn from internet,books, theses, articles and newspapers. It is for the purpose
of answeringquestions posed by the researcher. This technique includes the most of thepart of Chapter
2: The Review of Related Studies.
3.3.2. Observation.
This technique is used when the researcher cannotsecure valid data through the use of the two methods,
the face-to-faceinterview and the survey.
3.3.3. Interview.
An Interview is an act of questioning to receive a desiredanswer that is necessary in solving a specific
problem. This is where datagathering occurs by asking questions for much needed information from
theinterviewee verbally and directly.
3.3.4. Analysis.
Analysis is the process of summarizing the whole study intoits essential parts of the data gathered
according to the specific questionsunder the statement of the problem.
44
3.3.5. Questionnaire.
A sequence of questions used in gathering important
informations from one or more persons.
This will be distributed to thestudents and faculties of the TUP-T in order to satisfy the researcher
s goal
,which is to get and measure the opinions and polls of the respondents of thestudy. The questionnaire
used for data gathering is a self-made that consistsof 5 questions intended to the guidance counselor
while 10 questions wereequally distributed to the students and faculties
