CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

Introduction
     Our Client is the school of Our Lady of Victories Academy also known as“OLOVA” in Amulung, Cagayan; our system is Attendance Monitoring System, only applicable to the teachers and other staff or personnel in the school using their ID, it is only applicable to the students if there is a huge activities in school like foundations, intramurals and other activities.
Every school takes its responsibilities towards monitoring student’s attendance very seriously. Many schools already have processes in place to record and follow up persistent absence as an integral part of their duty of care.
Attendance is very important in every students, a single absent is big difference in performance in the school. Mostly students of high school are prone to absences, it is because of some reasons that they think it is a boring class, laziness to attend the class, some students prefer going to computer shops playing games rather that entering the class and some students cannot refuse the influence of a friend or peer pressure.
Most of the schools nowadays are implementing automated techniques and processes to meet their growing needs, and it can be best defined by widely used of computers and other devices. Attendance is a time record of numbers of student present during events, generally defined as systematic accurate all. It is an obligation of every student as fullest potential. It is very important to the student and etc. to maintain their attendance from school or work.

Statement of the Problem

1. Maximizing the time of the teachers to their attendance.
2. Maximizing the time checking the attendance of the student if there is an activities in school like the foundation and etc.
3. It is hard for them to identify the penalty of student to be given depending on his attendance as regards to his/her absences if there is an activities in school.

Hypothesis
The proposed system will be capable of maintaining the efficiency of every student attendance record through Student ID.
1.   We will be creating an attendance monitoring system to lessen the time of the teachers and the personnel to take their attendance.
2.   Minimizing the time checking the attendance of the student if there’s an activities.
3.   The proposed system also has the capability of computing penalty of student to be given depending on his attendance as regards to his/her absences if there’s an activities.
Significance of the study
     This study is conducted to propose and develop a new system that would be of great advantage to the school, researchers, and to future researchers.
Our Lady of Victories Academy - The result of the study would provide more efficient and effective processing of the data. It would also result to faster and easier generation of the outputs; hence, reports are submitted on time for timely decision making.
Researchers - The conduct of this study helped the researchers to work independently. The researchers able to practiced their knowledge in System Analysis Design.
Future Researchers - This study will serve as a guide for other researchers who intend to explore along the same line of the study.

Scope and Delimitation

The study covers the used of the present system but just automating it to easily check the attendance of the students and teachers. To make it easier to identify their records and penalties.
The proposed system will be capable of maintaining the efficiency of every student attendance record through Student ID. The proposed system also has the capability of computing penalty of student to be given depending on his attendance as regards to his/her absences per event.

Definition of Terms
     Absent - not present in a place, at an occasion, or as part of something.
Activity - the condition in which things are happening or being done, A thing that a person or group does or has done.
Attendance – the action or state of going regularly to or being present at a place or event.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
     This chapter presents several literature and studies that provide information data that is related to the present study and provide guidance to the researcher for better understanding.


Related Literature

RFID student attendance monitoring system is a system that will take students attendance by using RFID technology. This system mainly comprises of Nokia 6212 NFC mobile which is used as RFID reader, RFID tags which are embedded to the students ID cards and Server machine which is likely computer. This system records student’s attendance to an attendance database server. (Rodrigo, 2012)
With the help of an attendance system, institutions and other organizations can save time and money. When we talk about an attendance management system it is not specifically only for schools or companies. It can be used everywhere where people in large number work. Apart from saving time this system also helps in saving money of the organization which was otherwise lost in monitoring, tracing and updating information.
Cost spent on buying supplies like ink, paper, files, sheets, pens, punching machines, and many more all can be saved with the use of automated systems.
This system benefits teachers, management staffs in schools and colleges and managers in companies to easily view all the collected data within a single click. This stored data is stored in a database and hence is safely stored for years together. The same data is stored in documents are sure to get misplaced soon in the near future. To avoid all such problems all the organizations are using this system for a peaceful maintenance.
This system can be very beneficial for human resource departments too as they can view the records of their employees and then provide salary to them. With this system issuing the salary would not at all be tough for companies as they can very easily check the record of employees and issue the salary. This system if used can be used for a long term process. Archive data too can be obtained as the data base is updated every year with a fresh set of important information and records.” (G. Radhakrishnan, 2012)

     According toNasir Uddin(September 10, 2011), for the developing economies like Bangladesh capital market is like an engine for growth. It acts as an intermediary between surplus units and deficits units. Whereas, transparent and investors friendly business atmosphere is essential in capital market for building confidence of general investors. There are a wide range of investors from well-known informed to rumormonger, the gambler to complete risk avoider. So a common strategy from the regulator should be taken to balance the whole market. The monitoring investigation, grievance and legal department of DSE plays an important role to build up investor’s confidence by providing service to its broker house as well as the investors. The bourse has a strong monitoring cell, which prime objective is to provide a perfect working environment by providing service to the member houses and investors. Since 2003 the monitoring cell is doing its operation by a fearless team. Over the years, the department has earned its trust and confidence and support through its enthusiasm. This paper is an outcome of study conducted in DSE; the study has identified the reasons for some irregularities in the stock market and tried to find out what are the loopholes to the securities laws and regulations. The findings of the study revealed that the present market is not limited with the high income people of the society; the small income investors are also spontaneously invest their savings.
The study indicated that for the smooth functioning market the importance of the monitoring cell is evidently important. The effectiveness of the monitoring cell is shown by the time series analysis and contribution of monitoring in stock market. The study suggests that as the number of brokerage houses are increased all over the country DSE has to improve its monitoring system. And, the investors should be aware of their rights, responsibilities and duties. However, the findings shows that in terms of problem identification the brokerage house with the department of DSE is quite effective and playing a vital role in a capital market. For the sake of stability and to maintain sustainable growth in the securities market there is no alternative to complying with securities related rules. For this purpose the Monitoring, Investigation and Compliance Department (MIC) of the Dhaka Stock Exchange Limited has been continuing its monitoring related activities.


Synthesis
     The related literature discussed all the deal of the attendance system which have something to do with the present study. The profiles of the items give easier efforts to monitor the attendance.
     The related studies discussed the time efforts of employees concerned are maximizes for productivity of reports and our proposed system provides systematic and organized handling and generation of reports.
