REVIEW OF LITERATURE

In our life today, computer is one of the many inventions that greatly affected our

way of living. In fact, it is regarded as an essential tool in many areas including business,

industry, government, sciences, education, school, home, and in almost any organization

and establishment that exists. It can perform operation and process data rapidly,

accurately and reliably and by using these machines, spending a lot of time and effort in

doing certain task is minimized. Attendance Monitoring System is a system that manages

and monitors the attendance of an employee in a certain establishment. It serves as a time

log that is set up as a computerized database. It maintains a daily record of a person's

arrival and departure time from work or school. This study is conducted for the existing

manual attendance monitoring system in form of a fully developed computerized

attendance monitoring system of the La Salette of Ramon High School Department and is

intended to be used by the institution’s administrators, members of the faculty and staff

(http://www.studymode.com/essays/Attendance-Monitoring-System-3-730858.html).

The significant increase in the number of Faculty and Staff has created not only

job opportunities for teaching and non-teaching professions, but also resulted to the

different problems stemmed from this trend. To resolve this problem, the management of

the university has implemented numerous changes. These changes involve adopting and

acquiring new technologies such as the computerization of the different transactions

particularly the newly implemented enrollment. This helps the colegio to reduce

administration time and associated costs. Monitoring of students attendance, specifically

those pertaining to special activities is one of the problems that need immediate actions.

Every academic year, the university has its scheduled activities and every student is

Page 12: Introduction

required to attend most of the time. This includes orientation activity for the first year

students and transferees, intramurals, seminar-workshops, and other related special

activities. Using Computerized Attendance Monitoring System to replace the manual

attendance monitoring of Colegio de San Juan de

Letran(http://www.studymode.com/essays/Students-Attendance-Monitoring-

792445.html).

Alumni recording system may be used to create a network of support from

alumni, primarily through organized alumni groups; to track alumni; to monitor their

achievements, activities, and recognitions; to create statistics; to reply to information

requests; and to provide information on the accomplishments of previous students. This

series may include but is not limited to membership lists with names, addresses,

employer names and addresses, and positions; minutes, by-laws and directories of clubs

in many Oregon communities and several major cities throughout the United States;

promotional materials concerning annual gatherings; homecoming plans and programs;

data cards and files for individual alumni; degree recipient lists; outstanding alumni lists;

student leader lists; class officer lists; foreign student rosters; international alumni club

records; and notes, memoranda, and related correspondence concerning general alumni

affairs (Valina, 2009).
