ABC School Faculty Classroom Observation Web and Mobile Application Capstone Project Document

Introduction

Technology, in today’s world, plays a very important role in our lives. This is because technology makes our work faster and less time consuming, and gadgets specifically the Smart Phones are also becoming part of our daily lives. Nowadays almost of the population are already used to using smart phones. The influence of technology can be felt in every possible field such as the field of Education. Technology includes the use of materials, tools, techniques, and sources of power to work more productive.

As the continuous growth of the population of the students in the ABC School  the numbers of teachers required are also increasing. However, because of the increasing numbers of teachers, the Department Chair of the said school still uses the manual process in evaluating its faculty members is time consuming.

The proponents decided to develop Faculty Classroom Observation with Web and Mobile Application from the manual version of faculty classroom observation that will minimize the time consumed by the department chair in evaluating each teacher for more efficient, effective and reliable system that supports paperless advocacy, since nowadays people are already used to Internet and Smart Phones that are now becoming part of our daily lives.

Background Of The Study

As a leading institution in terms of education, promoting better quality standards of teaching. The ABC School –  shall upgrade the process of manual faculty classroom observation and performance evaluation to a more systematic approach with the help of the modern technologies.

The study aims to enhance the process in evaluating teachers to deliver a quality, productive, innovative and life changing courses of action and instructions. Its job is to help the evaluators to examine and assess teachers’ credentials through the system with the use of web or mobile application. The manual process will only transition to a computer-based platform and the job of the evaluators, such as the Dean and the Chairperson still follows the manual process.

The system will automatically store data entered in a storage known as Database where large quantity of information are stored and can be accessed anytime. When ABC SCHOOL Faculty Classroom Observation Web and Mobile Application is done in a considerate and respectful fashion, classroom observation can be beneficial for both to the evaluator and to the faculty evaluated.

Faculty Performance Evaluation in A Philippine University Information Technology Program

The indication of academic performance evaluation in state Universities and Colleges have been a constant practice in the Philippines. Performance is the completion of a known job and undertaking that is evaluated and measured against preset known standards of correctness, exactness, completeness, speed, and efficiency. Assessment of specific practices of each and every faculty help determine if it commensurate expectations from students, academic stand point, in relation to program’s objectives. This study utilized descriptive research design to describe the phenomenon quantitatively and conducted during the Second Semester of School Year 2016-2017 at Leyte Normal University, BS Information Technology program. A total of 84% from the 392 expected respondents participated in the study. The results revealed that the faculty performed very satisfactorily in professionalism, commitment, knowledge of the subject, teaching for independent learning, and management of learning. The teacher’s visibility in all aspects yields a positive impact on student’s interest and motivation in learning. Leyte Normal University, as a forefront institution of formal IT education in Region VIII has formed strategic program and education curriculum for IT learning. faculty members and 1 Department Head, the department is under the umbrella of the College of Arts and Sciences and has been offering IT education for 12 years now. (Caluza et al., 2017)

Online Faculty Evaluation System for Laguna College of Business and Arts

The Online Faculty Evaluation System for Laguna College of Business and Arts (LCBA) comprised of three types of users, namely, the Human Resource Department, the faculty members, and the students themselves. Through the use of this system, the Human Resource Department could easily determine the teaching proficiency of the faculty through the evaluation made by the students. The system was designed to have an administrator account that would handle the system; the Human Resource Department would implement the system to the students. The system has the ability to generate reports which contain the total number of students who made the evaluation and produce hard copies of evaluation report to each faculty member (Garcia et al., 2015).

Foreign Related Studies

Park University Faculty Online Observation

The Faculty Online Observation (FOO) was developed for online faculty at Park University. The FOO was created to meet the needs of the evolving online program, as well as provide an annual requirement to meet the similar in-class observation of full-time faculty.

Maintaining academic standards, retention of quality faculty, and establishing a measure for promotion can be achieved through faculty evaluation. As Park University entered the online marker, the market, the growing course offerings would involve an increasing number of adjunct faculty members. In order to ensure that these faculty members use best practices and maintain high standards of teaching that are important to student satisfaction, Park University developed an evaluation process for online adjunct faculty similar to in-class observation of full-time faculty, but focused on unique factors of online course facilitation. The focus of this analysis is on the Faculty Online Observation (FOO) method which is an advanced model for evaluation developed from utilizing the original evaluation system used in annual observations for online adjunct faculty.

Finally, the analysis discusses the applicability of the FOO to other institutions with online programs.  To meet the demand of students within its established campus center system, Park University relied heavily on an adjunct faculty pool. As the online course offerings grew, me of these adjuncts taught online courses as needed. Recognizing a need to properly assess the facilitation of online instructors, the Park University College for Distance Learning created a proprietary instrument called the Online Instructor Evaluation System. (Mandernach, et al, 2005)

State of the States’ Teacher Evaluation and Support Systems

Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is changing the landscape around teacher professional development and evaluation. Focused on giving states greater autonomy in determining accountability, assessment, teacher evaluation, and other education priorities, ESSA has created a window of opportunity for states to change aspects of their education systems to better suit local preferences. By reducing the federal role in how teacher evaluation is conducted, states will have an opportunity to reconsider their current teacher evaluation systems, including controversial aspects of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) waiver system, such as a requirement to use student assessment results for teacher evaluation. Under ESSA, states are no longer required to consider student outcomes in teacher evaluation. As a part of ESSA, states will have opportunities to receive funding for ongoing professional opportunities for teachers. In this report, we consider what systems of support for teachers might look like and how professional opportunities could be aligned with evaluation system (Wylie et al.,2017).

The value of evaluation for foreign and local school development the constitutive effects of evaluation, that explains the present result, of knowledge produced by evaluation can be used, and methodological issue. The proposed Faculty Classroom Observation Web and Mobile Application will ensure the reliability and efficiency of the system. This automated system will help the Faculty in Bachelor of Science in Information System in handling the academic Evaluation in a more effective and efficient way.

Furthermore, the literatures mentioned above, this system will help the Chairperson and Dean to manage the Data gather for evaluating of the faculty for the system itself.

Methodology

This chapter contains methods used by proponents in developing the system, which describes the different systematic approaches used in the analysis and the design of the representation.

The development of system involved the use of Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) process used to design, develop and test software. It consists of a detailed plan describing on how to develop, maintain, replace alter or enhance specific software. The life cycle defines a methodology for improving the quality of the software and the overall development process.

The proponents use the Agile Software Development Life Cycle model as this emphasizes adaptability by rapid delivery of working the software. Agile Model handled every project differently and the existing methods need to be tailored to best suit the project requirements. In Agile, the tasks are divided to small time frames to deliver specific features for release.
