Assignment 4

Contrast and discuss the enrolment input form (PRF) with the enrolment university interface. (at least 1000words, not to include illustrations/figures/diagrams)

Let us look at the pre-registration form (PRF) first

Let us discuss the fields that are in the form:

College/Unit – the college or department where the student belongs
Name – the name of the student who will enroll
ID No. – the id number of the student
Address – the address of the student
If employed, name and address of employer- the name and address of the employer if the student has a work.
Semester – the semester in which the student will enroll
School year - the school year in which the student will enroll
Course - the course of the student
Major - the major of the student
Section - the section of the student
Sex - the student's gender
Type - the student's type
Scholarship - the scholarship grant of the student
Code - the subject code of the subject (e.g., 5078)
Subject title - the title of the subject (e.g., CS 323)
Subject description - the subject description of the subject
Units - how many units the subject is
Section - the section where the student will enroll the subject
Days - the day schedule of the subject
Time - the time schedule of the subject
Room - the available room for the subject


The pre-registration form (PRF) is filled-up by the student for him/her to enroll. The main purpose of the PRF is to know the subjects in which the student will enroll.

On the other hand, let’s look on the user interface of the USEP-SRIS(Student Records Information System)

As you can see, there are fields in the SRIS which are not included in the PRF (class, civil status, contact number, e-mail add, religion, desired career and parents). Also, there is no scholarship field in the SRIS user interface. So in short, the user interface of the PRF and the SRIS do not match.

My comment:
Some fields such as civil status, e-mail add, etc. which are not in the PRF should not show in the user interface of the SRIS (if the purpose is for enrollment purpose only). The fields in the PRF and the SRIS should be the same.
