Android Based SIWES Supervision System:- Shadrach Manna C

ABSTRACT v Monitoring of students who.are undergoing the Students’ Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) Programme by school-based supervisors is a difficult task because the current paper based logbook system currently used is not adequate enough to determine how well students are undergoing the programme. It is difficult for the school-based supervisor to know whether students actually filled their logbooks daily, showing what they have done and learnt whether they filled it all at the end of a long period oftime which means that such entries are very likely to be fraudulent which is why schoolsupervisors try to visit students on the programme to physically monitor such students, however due to distance and other logistical issues, school-based supervisors are only able to visit once or sometimes never. This application was developed to help school-based supervisors to monitor students on the SIWES programme more effectively and also makes grading and commenting on logbook entries a lot easier. It can therefore be deployed to tertiary institutions in-Nigeria to assist them to run their respective SIWES programs.
