Implementation of the Heuristic Evaluation Method in the Design of the School Academic Information System Website

Abstract

In the world of education, the role of teachers and parents is very influential in the process of improving student learning achievement. However, in reality, most parents only give responsibility to teachers at school to improve student learning achievement. Parents of students rarely monitor the development of their children's learning abilities due to the lack of information about it. Global Prima National Plus School is one of the leading private schools in Medan, located on Jalan Brigjend Katamso. Currently, Global Prima National Plus School uses Microsoft Excel to manage student data and student test scores. However, the implementation of this system still has several weaknesses, namely parents cannot monitor attendance and directly know the development of student scores and behavior. This will reduce parental participation in their children's educational development. To solve the problems faced by Global Prima National Plus School, an application can be created to monitor student learning development. By using this application, parents of students can obtain information about student attendance data, attitude and behavior scores, assignment scores, and test scores directly, without having to wait for report cards to be distributed. With this web-based student learning progress monitoring application, parents can find out information about student attendance, attitude scores, behavior, exam scores and assignment scores which can be accessed directly through the school website.
