| dc.description.abstract | In this study, an examination invigilation management system was implemented for the Uganda National Examination Board, to ease the management and control the examination invigilation. This is because there is inefficiency such as poor record keeping, file loss, among others in the management of the invigilation process, especially primary and secondary schools within Kampala district which was used as the case study because it was easily accessed by the researchers. This is caused by various challenges such as; lack of ICT tools, corruption from high officials, computer illiteracy and rigidity. The study used both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data was collected using interviews and questionnaire methods and tools like self- administered questionnaires and interview guides, which were used for collecting data from 42 respondents. In objective one, the researcher collected primary data which was analyzed using excel spreadsheets and graphs and the user requirements were determined. In objective two, the system was designed using data flow diagrams (DFDs) and enhanced entity relationship diagrams (ERDs). In objective three, the system was developed using technologies such as Bootstrap, CSS, HTML, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL among others. In objective four, the system was tested and validated. The findings of the study are a great significance to researchers, teachers, the Uganda National Examination Board, and the Ministry of Education and Sports. The study recommends that there is need to adopt an electronic management system for the invigilator allocation process in order to improve the supervision of national examinations in Uganda. | en_US |
