Web-based Management and Assessment System for Postgraduate Research Symposium of Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS

This research project is to develop a management system that computerizes the process of managing and assessing in educational organizations. It will be applied in the case of postgraduate research symposium in Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP). The society has evolved in a more modern and educational background, many countries has considered education as one of the most important factors in development. Due to the increasing number of students every year, the management and assessment processes have always been an administrative burden for academic staffs to collaborate and keep track of the student performance. The objective of this system is to become a centralized management and assessment portal for students, academic staffs, supervisors, and external examiners, which provides full control over the entire submission and evaluation processes. In the scope of UTP, the research symposium of postgraduate students is focused and the system is built on a web-based architecture which allows postgraduate students to submit their symposiums for their supervisors to evaluate and approve by digitalized assessment forms

Designing interactions for the collective user experience

This paper introduces the theoretical background to the interaction design used to develop an assignment drop box at an Australian regional University and the subsequent pilot assessment. Tenets from the Ecological School of the Discipline of Human–Computer Interaction were used to analyse and design the human-systems integration solution to the business process issue which was compounded by user problems with the installed software. The analysis and design received positive user feedback in the pilot study and after the subsequent go live became central to Learning Management System
