Desarrollo de una aplicación web para el control académico de la Escuela de Educación Básica “Capullitos” aplicando la norma ISO/IEC 9126-2 para determinar el nivel de usabilidad.

Abstract

The objective of this degree work was to develop a web application for the academic control of “Capullitos” School applying the ISO/IEC 9126-2 standard to determine the usability level, for which an analysis of the current situation of the institution in the enrollment and registration processes of students was carried out, evaluation record, behavior record, attendance record and delivery of reports. The application was developed in NetBeans with the use of Java Server Faces framework (JSF), applying the model view controller architecture (MVC) and using PostgreSQL as a database management system, to follow the development of the application the Agile Scrum methodology was used which allows the client to be part of the work team allowing you to adjust the functionalities. To evaluate the usability level of the system, some performance tests were carried out with the authorities and teachers of the institution so subsequently to apply surveys, in which 87% of the respondents said they were satisfied with the usability of the system. In the same way, to measure the efficiency of the software, a survey model was used to obtain information on the times in which the academic control processes are developed in a traditional way in the institution, in order to make a comparison with the use of the system by means of a time evaluation instrument incorporated in the same system. The obtained result is that the computer system reduces the time by 97.8%. Finally, it is recommended to expand the scope of the system by adding new modules that cover other activities of the institution such as the completion of the student's portfolio, development of reports about students’ academic progress and to take control of parents’ performance, etc.
