DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN ONLINE COURSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study is to provide online classroom that will be running alongside the traditional classroom system, complimenting and making up for all the areas in which it is lacking, like in the area of space, effective communication of knowledge. It can go a long way to make provision to web application also known as web software that will enhance learning, like an online laboratory. Online classroom is an excellent method of teaching the adult learners because it allows them to discover new skills, technologies and strategies on their own with or without the help of their lecturers. The methodology adopted in this project was in line with the Object oriented analysis and design method (OOADM) that simply means a way of organizing software as a collection of discrete objects that incorporate both their data structure and behaviour. Therefore this methodology is developed into three aspects such as Object-oriented analysis, Object-oriented design and Object-oriented programming. During the course of this study, the researcher applied the process of e-learningsolutions which is suitable for developing contexts characterized by technology constraints, in designing the project. Online classroom can go along way promoting the growth of education in schools with the use of e-learning to provide online video, online course material and enhancing easy communication between the lecturers and the students.
