Desarrollo de un sistema web para la gestión del control académico y pagos de los estudiantes de la fundación “FUCIDI”, utilizando framework Django y Python.

Abstract

The objective of this curriculum integration work was the development of the web application for the automation of academic control and student payments, at the foundation "FUCIDI" located in the city of Riobamba. We applied the ISO/IEC 9126-4 standard to determine the percentage of the productivity of the application. We utilized the agile Extreme Programming (XP) methodology for the development, which allowed working in constant communication and continuous feedback, between the client and the development team. For the collection of data and requirements, we utilized techniques such as interview, observation, review of documents and methods such as Analysis-Synthesis and Inductive-deductive. For the development of the software, the Python programming language, the Django Framework, Html5, Css5, JavaScript, Ajax, JQuery, Bootstrap, PostgreSQL were used as a database engine and Pycharm as a source code editor. The architecture applied was model - template - view (MTV) which belongs to the Django Framework. Once the web application was developed, we evaluated the quality of use of the software, productivity (time, resource) and satisfaction were measured according to the ISO / IEC 9126-4 standard. Besides, the student's T test was applied obtaining a value of 9.407, being greater than the critical value, the Hypothesis is accepted. Thus, we say there is a significant difference in response times when performing the different tasks or processes. Thereby, it is concluded that through the development of the web system, productivity was improved in terms of time and resources in the processes of academic control and student payments. Besides, when applying the survey of the system usability scale (SUS), a value of 79% usability of the application was obtained. We recommend to The FUCIDI foundation to increase more modules in the future, to automate more processes and to review the technical manual and user manual.
