Chapter 1 The Problem and its Background

Introduction Computer technology has been known as the support for progress all over the world. In fact, the present century has taken big steps for progress, from traditional to high information technology. We are now in the computerized world, where our skills will lead us in the easiest way in order to reach our goals and dreams to improve our way of living. People are now using computers on their daily lives, but many small businesses and schools are not yet using computers efficiently and effectively and other are still using manual system.

Saint Paul College Foundation, Inc. has stood when is founder took a great risk in venturing into vocational technical institution for the country last July of 1989. It started with only thirty seven (37) enrollees in its entire Computer Secretarial, Computer Education, Computer Technology, Auto Diesel Mechanics, Electronics and Practical Electricity Courses. Based on our research for the said school, Teachers is using different formula in computing of grades of each students. The proposed system is an Automated Grading System for the office of the Registrar of St. Paul Colleges Foundation, Inc. having an Automated Grading System for the said school will give an unique formula that will be use in getting or computing the grades of the students and system where personnel can encode the students grade. Using the different formula in computing of students grades of the said school is not accurate and/or different result in other students grades using another different formula. Thus, having an Automated Grading System for the said school will become easy, accurate and time saving for the Teachers, Personnel as well as the students.

CHAPTER 2 Theoretical Framework and Literature Review


We are on the cusp of a completely new era, and changes must be made in Education to ensure that all students leave school prepared to face the Challenges of a redefined world.

(Thornburg, 2000) 2.1 Introduction Collaborative learning through structured blending of online tutorials, and lecture supplemented with Socratic dialogue, role-based group assignments and other similar activities seems to be a viable option in the context of the University of Botswana (UB). Successful blending requires an understanding of the pedagogical attributes and affordances

of new and emerging learning technologies, the most desirable aspects of face-to-face teaching and the ways in which these aspects can be appropriately integrated as discussed in the following sections. Therefore, this chapter discusses the scope of these technologies in Higher Education (HE) from various perspectives, its potential impact on the net generation students, its affordances in student learning and research, distinct features of elearning and blended learning, how these modes of delivery compare with traditional face-to-face approaches, and their benefits to higher education as well as the challenges they pose. This chapter also helps to gain understanding of the conditions under which the enabling potential of technology will be realised and further, establish the purpose of this study. In order to establish the rationale of placing blended learning at the core of this study, this chapter proposes a theoretical framework that serves as the foundation for the

study; it is critical to have a theoretical framework as this is a descriptive and interpretive qualitative case study; it helped the Researcher to review the underlying theories, philosophies, assumptions, and methodological techniques of the study, and to formulate the basis for developing instruments for data collection
