ABSTRACT

Industrial Training (LI) is a compulsory requirement for all undergraduate students of

the programs involved to get the certification of Degree Sarjana Muda at Universiti

Sultan Zainal Abidin (Unisza). The student's evaluation are based on their weekly

report, final report and specific task. The existing method used nowdays by supervisor

to give an evaluation marks for their students are still using manual method that is

using an evaluation form. In order to sustain and improvise the existing method of the

student's evaluation, a new strategy is required. So, an Evaluation of Industrial

Training system which is a web based system are developed in order to enables and

facilitates on the student's assessment. The research methods for gathering

requirements consists of an literature review and documents review (evaluation form)

are used to adapted the existing method of student's assessment with the development

of MyESIT. Regarding to the time and amount of workload factors, Iterative and

Incremental model have been chosen as a guideline during the development of

MyESIT. The system was developed using HTML scripting language (Hyper Text

Markup Language), PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) and Javascript. Other softwares

that are used during the development of MyESIT are Google Chrome and Internet

Explorer, as a web server. Meanwhile, Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 are used for

encoding and MySQL as a database. Indirectly, MyESIT system allows the student's

assessment entered directly into the system without involving the use of the evaluation

form.

ABSTRAK

Latihan Perindustrian (LI) adalah syarat wajib bagi semua pelajar siswazah yang

terlibat untuk mendapatkan pensijilan Sarjana Muda di Universiti Sultan Zainal

Abidin. Penilaian setiap pelajar berdasarkan pada laporan mingguan, laporan akhir

dan tugasan khusus. Kaedah sedia ada yang digunakan hari ini oleh penyelia untuk

membuat penilaian pelajar masih menggunakan kaedah manual yang menggunakan

borang penilaian. Untuk menambah baik kaedah penilaian pelajar yang sedia ada,

strategi baru diperlukan. Jadi, Penilaian Sistem Latihan Industri yang merupakan

sistem berasaskan web dibangunkan untuk membolehkan dan memudahkan penilaian

pelajar. Kaedah penyelidikan untuk keperluan pengumpulan terdiri daripada tinjauan

literatur dan kajian semula dokumen (bentuk penilaian) yang digunakan untuk

menyesuaikan kaedah penilaian pelajar yang sedia ada dengan sistem yang

dibangunkan. Berkenaan dengan masa dan jumlah faktor beban kerja, model

“Iterative and Incremental” telah dipilih sebagai garis panduan semasa

pembangunan MyESIT. Sistem ini dibangunkan menggunakan bahasa skrip HTML

(Hyper Text Markup Language), PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) dan Javascript.

Perisian lain yang digunakan semasa pembangunan MyESIT adalah Google Chrome

dan Internet Explorer, sebagai pelayan web. Sementara itu, Visual Studio Code

digunakan untuk pengekodan dan MySQL sebagai pangkalan data. Secara tidak

langsung, sistem MyESIT membolehkan penilaian pelajar dimasukkan terus ke dalam

sistem tanpa melibatkan penggunaan borang penilaian.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND

Industrial Training (LI) is a mandatory requirement for all Bachelor's students from all

program involved to fulfilling. This training is conducted in full time. Industrial

Training aims to provide students the opportunity to practice academic knowledge in

real-world occupation. Indirectly, it can assess the student's knowledge and self-

esteem. In addition to getting professional acquaintance and networking with the

industry, students can also use industrial training experience to help them gain a career

in the future.

The duration of the industrial training is over a semester which is 6 months.

Most of these industrial training students are located in the state of Johor, Kelantan,

Terengganu, Kuala Lumpur, Perlis, Perak and other states according to the student's

choice. Throughout the supervision, students will be evaluated by their respective

supervisor's lecturers. Things to consider in this assessment are discipline, work skills,

diligence and interest, creative and innovative, cooperative attitude, personality and

2

communication skills. These are assessed based on at least one meeting between the

student and the supervisor's lecturer during the industrial training periods.

The number of trainees for supervisor’s lecturers and the distances between

different organizations makes the supervisor need to pursue time and consequently the

supervisor that evaluate students is less than perfect. In addition, supervisory lecturers

also use the form to make assessment marks for students including weekly’s note

reports, final reports and special work.

With the growing use of ICT in today's education and the broader opportunities

for communicating, it is important that ICT be applied in the evaluation of Industrial

Training students. Therefore, based on the study conducted on the method for

assessment of Industrial Training students used at Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin

(Unisza) at this time, the Evaluation System of Industrial Training Student (MyESIT)

is proposed to facilitate the supervisor's assessment of student supervision over the

duration of the industrial training.

Student assessment methods include the evaluation of weekly reports, final

reports and student-specific assignments. Indirectly, MyESIT provides facilities for

supervisors and industry supervisors to insert student evaluation scores electronically.

This feature will improve management to be more efficient, reduce the use of the form

and help the involved parties to save more time.

1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT

Innovation in practical need to be considered and implemented to enhance learning and

performance among industrial training students undergoing Industrial Training (LI) in

an organization. Online assessment is widely used in research, counselling, nursing,

teaching and teaching practice.

Based on several studies and observations carried out on the existing methods of

evaluation for Industrial Training in students, there are some shortcomings. Among

those are:

The evaluation method used by supervisory lecturers and industry supervisors

is by using the form.

The university is facing a delay in obtaining evaluation forms from industry

supervisors by students that undergoing Industrial Training.

Difficult to obtain and update a record of students, supervisors and

organizations involved through existing portals right on times.

The evaluation method used by industry supervisors is by using the form and

then submit the assessment forms to the student to be handed over to the academic

supervisor when they visits the organization. This situation raises doubts if there are

frauds or students altering the marks found on the evaluation forms before students

submit it. Furthermore student maybe making fake signature at their daily report and

full report.

4

1.3 OBJECTIVES

The Evaluation System of Industrial Training Students (MyESIT) aims to assist the

university, especially supervisor and industrial supervisor to evaluate and review the

work of the Industrial Training students (LI) work more easily and regularly. The

system also aims to facilitate supervisors to obtain information on students who undergo

industrial training and enable reports generated by students during industrial training to

be stored more easily and systematically.

To achieve this goal, the three objectives of MyESIT were drawn up:

i To study the methods of evaluation Industrial Training students.

ii To develop the Evaluation System of Industrial Training Student (MyESIT).

iii To test the Evaluation System of Industrial Training Student (MyESIT) that will

develop.

CHAPTER 2

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 Introduction

Prior to initiating the project development process, a survey and study was conducted

to determine the extent of the system requirements to be developed. This chapter

explains the research done on existing systems, the shortcomings and advantages of

existing systems, and the technologies used in system development. The literature

review is aimed to gather information as well as identifying problems that occur in

search of opportunities to further enhance the productivity of the system being studied

(Whitten, 1994). This chapter is a method for identifying problems and deficiencies in

existing systems. This allows system developers to add and improve existing system

shortages. Literature review is very important as it can provide ideas and directions

about the research to be done.

8

2.2 Industry Training Program (Li) in Education

Industrial Training (LI) is a compulsory requirement for students in certain programs

at all levels of higher education at the Institute of Higher Education (IPT). To improve

the leverage of graduates, the LI program is introduced to empower the competencies

required. LI courses provide students with learning opportunities in the world of work

to receive practical experience to improve its marketability (Industrial Training

Guidelines, 2013 Edition, Ministry of Higher Education).

Industrial Training (LI) is a mandatory requirement for all Bachelor's students

from the programs involved in fulfilling the requirements for the award of the

Bachelor's Degree, Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin (Unisza). Industrial Training aims

to provide students the opportunity to practice academic knowledge into real-world

employment. Indirectly, it can assess the student's career values, knowledge and self-

esteem. Besides to get the professional acquaintances and networking with the

industry, students can also use industry training experience in helping to get a good

future careers.

2.3 Review On Existing System

The study of existing systems is essential for developing a new system. It is

intended as a reference and guide to developing a new system. Additionally, reviews

on existing system can also provide system developers with the useful information

that relevant to develop systems in order to avoid mistakes and indirectly the problems

inherent in existing systems can be overcome.

9

2.3.1 Teaching Information System (UTM)

Figure 2.1 Teaching Information System

Teaching Information System (or simply SMLM) is an on-line application

developed using Active Server Pages (ASP) programming and Microsoft Access

database applications. SMLM was created to help overcome most of the problems

faced by the Faculty in designing, implementing and managing Teaching’s Training.

SMLM is built on a web page that offers flexibility where every student, lecturer,

mentor and school sides can see the progress of students under their supervision and

this can be done anywhere and at any time in real-time.

SMLM offers six categories of users based on their respective needs and usage

namely trainee teachers, supervisory lecturers, school management and school’s

supervisor, teaching training secretaries, teaching training managers and system

managers. SMLM provides facilities for students (trainee teachers) to register online

teaching training. Then the trainee teachers can make a school’s choice as a place to

10

training teaching. Supervisory lecturers can use SMLM to do some activities such as

viewing and updating personal records, viewing the records of each student under

supervision, viewing the placement of trainees, drawing up relevant research

questions, entering assessment scores, updating and scoring relevant scores.

SMLM also offers facilities for school management to scan and update school-

related records, name and information of school’s supervisor and fill out feedback on

trainee teachers under their supervision. School’s supervisor may also include

assessment marks on their undergraduate teachers and update their scores. Among the

features of SMLM is the facility to submit online assessment marks by lecturers and

school’s supervisor. The system also offers ease of analysis as well as making grading

and statistical analysis. This can provide useful information to all parties involved in

making appropriate follow up actions.

Overall, the SMLM prototype is designed and developed specifically to assist

the Faculty to improve the planning, implementation and administration of teaching

training programs. The use of SMLM by UTM demonstrates that this prototype not

only helps the Faculty to solve the problems faced but also reduces the cost and time

of administration and enables the Faculty and other involved parties to take follow-up

actions more quickly and efficiently.

2.3.2 Achievement Measurement System (e-PerforM) UiTM

Table 2.2 e-PerforM

The e-PerforM online system is a performance measurement evaluation system to

replace of an annual performance appraisal method that applies the Jabatan

Perkhidmatan Awam (JPA) forms for UiTM's academic staff. The purpose of the e-

PerforM development is to measure the achievement / performance of academic staff

and facilitate the achievement of data, particularly regarding teaching, supervision,

publication, research, award / innovation and so on. The method of system

implementation of e-PerforM is online.

This system is more beneficial to academic staff, the Faculty and the

University as the evaluation’s elements to be undertaken provide various information

that conforms to the characteristics of the production of an academic staff, as

compared with the existing evaluation system. The current assessment method is more

generic and does not really reflect academic achievement. The system has also been

12

integrated with existing systems at UiTM, namely Staff Management Information

System (STARS), Research Management Institute Reporting System (iReS) and

Student Information Management System (SIMS).

Figure 2.3 Performance Summary

The e-PerforM system can also assist faculty and university management in order to

help information management teams to be organized and efficient. Evaluation and

scoring criteria for teaching and preparation quality that involve ATP hours for

instructional and supervisory hours applied in e-PerforM are based on current policies

and guidelines issued by Academic Affairs (HEA). The performance evaluation of

lecturers is based on the criteria of teaching, supervision, publication, research,

13

consulting and expertise, conferences, innovations, university services, community

services, contributions to student development, personal qualities and leadership.

2.3.3 Student Assessment System (SAS), UTHM

Figure 2.4 Student Assessment System (SAS)

The Student Assessment System (SAS) is a system developed by the Information

Technology Center, UTHM. This system allows users (UTHM lecturers) to evaluate

and scoring on their supervised student’s tasks such as quizzes, reports and final

exams online more easily and quickly. The application environment used in the

Student Assessment System (SAS) consists of a platform that has the configuration of

all kinds of operating systems and all kinds of latest web browsers.

14

The Student Assessment System (SAS) also provides several reports that can

be generated by lecturers directly through the system. Lecturers can revise the

assessed assessments and basic course information such as course code, section,

semester / session, course name, current number of students, assignment names,

maximum marks and percentages that are already set by the coordinator in this

system. Furthermore, the lecturer can fill in the marks for each student who is listed in

the system according to the student under the supervision of the lecturer. An error or

notification message will be displayed if the marks entered by the lecturer do not meet

the specifications specified. Through the Student Assessment System (SAS), lecturers

can easily identify the level of student achievement under supervision.

15

2.4 Analyse on Existing System

Analyse existing system is aimed at obtaining information on existing systems, identifying advantages and disadvantages and analysing

the system to get the concepts of the system to be developed. The purpose of this process is to deeply understand the need for a new

system and develop a system that meets the requirements set. The following is a survey of some of the existing systems.

2.6 Conclusion

In conclusion, literature review is a scientific study made before the next process

of developing a system. Literature review is an important aspect of developing a

high quality system. This chapter can help in comparing existing systems with

the system that will be develop soon and some research are already done.

Comparison are also made to identify the weaknesses and advantages of the

system so that improvements can be implemented into the system to be

developed achieves the objectives and meets the needs of the users.

CHAPTER 3

METHODOLOGY

3.1 Introduction

Project Methodology is one of the implementation plans for the developer to

make sure the system that will develop works properly. In this chapter, the

methodology used in effort to develop this particular system will be discussed. For

this project, iterative and incremental model approach has been chosen as one of the

software development life cycle. While the other method that will apply in this project

is Weighted Sum Model (WSM). The details of those methodology as approach to

apply in this project development will be explained further. This chapter also state the

design requirement and process model of this proposed system. The details of system

function, method and approach used, database designation and interfaces of the

system will be shown. The process model for this system include Context Diagram

(CD), Data Flow Diagram (DFD) and Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) are

included in this chapter too.

21

3.2 Iterative and Incremental Model

Evaluation System for Industrial Training (myESiT) is developed by using

Iterative and Incremental Model approach. By using this approach, it allows the

developer to develop the system phase by phase. Developer also possible to return in

previous phase even though the deliverables had been done. There are 8 phases in

iterative and incremental model which are initial planning, planning, requirements,

analysis and design, implementation, testing

3.2.1 Initial Planning Phase

All activities involves to develop a complete system are plan according to a

given period in this phase. Initial planning phase are begins with brainstorming

session with the supervisor to come up with good ideas and verify the title for the

project propose. Based on a few brainstorming session with the supervisor, the project

title have been decided which is, Evaluation System for Industrial Training (myESiT)

and the preferred technique that will apply is Weighted Sum.

3.2.2 Planning Phase

For planning phase, a brief discussion are focus on defining the problem

statements, and objectives and scope for the propose system. In order to get more

information, the process of reviewing existing system are done to gather as much as

their constrain and the limitation.

22

3.2.3 Requirement Phase

All requirement that were needed in order to develop the system are identified

from the process of reviewing existing system. In this phase, all information regarding

Evaluation System either in the form of journal, articles or research paper are gathered

and studied.

3.2.4 Analysis and Design

For analysis and design phase, the design of the entire system will create and

the prototype of the system based on its functionalities will be built. All data and

requirement obtained in previous phase are transformed into the design. There are a

few diagram that will be build which are Use Case Diagram, Activity Diagram,

Sequence Diagram. Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD), and Data Dictionary. All of

these diagrams are built as a guideline of the flow of the system

3.2.5 Implementation and Testing

After designing the interface, the implementation phase are applied. During

this phase, the improvement of overall the system modules will be done. A further

discussion with respected supervisor are held in order to seek for solution for any error

or fixing bugs in the system. Unit testing and integrated testing for each module is

done to find errors and solutions to overcome and problems. In the end of the phase,

the entire modules of the system will be combined together and tested again before it

is implemented.

23

3.2.6 Evaluation

The evaluation of the system need to be done before deploying it to the end

user. The system must fulfil the entire system requirement and objective of the

system itself.

3.2.7 Deployment

Once the evaluation is done, the system is deployed in the environment so that

the targeted user can use the system. The system will be in steady state which meets

all the objectives of the project.

3.3 Software and Hardware Requirement

System requirement during development process can be divided into two parts

which is hardware and software requirement. The selection of hardware and software

needs is important so that all features of the system to be developed can fulfil the need

of consumers and will not cause any problems in the future. Appropriate selection will

enable the system move systematically and efficiently.

24

3.4 Problem Identification

Evaluation System for Industrial Training will develop as a proposed solution in

order to facilitate the methods of evaluation for industrial training’s student todays. As

we know, the evaluation method used by academic supervisor and industrial supervisor

are by using the form. The implementation of manual method will cause many problems

such as the university is facing a delay in obtaining evaluation forms from industrial

supervisor by students that undergoing Industrial Training. Besides, it’s also difficult to

obtain and update a record of students, supervisors and organization involved through

existing portals right on times

The evaluation method used by industry supervisors is by using the form and then

submit the assessment forms to the student to be handed over to the academic supervisor

when the academic supervisor visits the organization. This situation raises doubts if

there are frauds or students altering the marks found on the evaluation forms before

students submit it. Furthermore student maybe making fake signature at their daily

report and full report.

3.5 Framework and System Design

The design for Evaluation System for Industrial Training such as use case diagram,

activity diagram, sequence diagram, and entity relationship diagram (ERD) are

explained in detailed. Data modelling is required to facilitate the interaction between

system designer, programmer and end-user. It’s able to help identify the needs,

problems and possible solutions during the project.

27

3.5.1 Entity Relationship Design (ERD)

28

Figure 3.1 Entity Relationship Diagram

Entity relationship diagram (ERD) is data model representation for describing

the data and information involved in the system. From diagram above shows the

system have 7 tables which are student, supervisor, coordinator, file upload, industrial

supervisor, report and marks. The relationship between the tables is connected by a

foreign key.

29

Diagram 3.2 show use case of the system that describe 4 actors which are student,

coordinator, university supervisor and industrial supervisor use the system to

accomplish a particular goals

3.5.3 Activity Diagram

Figure 3.3 User login

The activity diagram below describes the workflow for user login through the

following steps by enter password and user ID. Then the condition are performed to

check whether password and user ID are correct or incorrect. If the password and user

ID are incorrect, error message will appear and user need to enter password and user

ID again. If password and user ID are correct, system interface activity is performed.

31

32

Academic supervisor and industrial supervisor need to choose student and report.

Once its done, the activities split into two parallel activities whether to choose weekly

or final report. After type of report is identified, download report, check report, give

comments and verify report status activities are performed. Finally activities foe give

evaluation mark is performed and that is marked as the termination of the process

Figure 3.5 Academic and industrial supervisor view list of student under supervision

Following figure is show to describe workflow for Academic and industrial supervisor

to view list of student under supervision. There are four activities which are choose

student menu, display list of student name, choose student name. Display student

information activities is performed and that is marked as the termination of the

process.

3.6 Weighted Sum Model (WSM)

Weighted Sum Model (WSM) is the most commonly used approach,

especially in single dimensional problem. If there are m alternative and n criteria then,

the best alternative is the one that satisfies (in the maximization case) the following

expression (Triantaphyllou 2000) :

Figure 3.25 Weighted Sum Formula

Where n is the number of criteria, aij is the value of weight assigned to the j

criteria. Performance of each alternative under each criteria aij relative weight for

each criteria Wj.

There are a few steps in WSM method:

Step 1 : State each criteria with a weight of importance

Step 2 : Overall score calculated by mulitply the criteria score with

weightage

Step 3 : Sum up the value of all score and find a total weight to rank

In evaluation system for industrial training there a many criteria to evaluate

such as for supervision evaluation (30%), specific task (20%), final report (20%), and

industrial supervision (30%).

54

3.7 Framework of the system

The framework below shows how this system works in a general way.

Weighted sum model method will be used to calculate the marks and make evaluation

towards students undergo Industrial Training.

Figure 3.26 Framework of the system

55

Industrial supervisor, academic supervisor, coordinator and student can login

into the system to get the privileges of using the system. Student able to check their

marks from the evaluation process made by their supervisor. While supervisor able to

make evaluation towards their student based on weekly report, final report, special

task and so on. The supervisor need to upload student marks to be view by their

student. All the actions are recorded into the web server and database of this proposed

system.

3.8 Chapter Summary

In conclusion, the third chapter of this document tells about the methodology and

approach used in the development phase of this proposed system. It is very important

in a project development, the methodology is specified and chosen well suitable to the

project to be developed and helps to solve the problems.

This proposed system needs to be evaluated by its users in terms of functionality and

effectiveness. The specification of software and hardware requirements are to make

CHAPTER 5

CONCLUSION

5.1 Introduction

After the final phase of the planning, analysis, design, testing and

implementation phase, the Industrial Training Student Assessment System (MyESIT)

was successfully developed according to design specifications and requirements.

Overall, MyESIT can help supervisors and industrial supervisors evaluate their

supervised students more easily and save time. The system can also achieve the

objectives and scope of development as it can function as planned.

However, the MyESIT system still has its own weaknesses. Hence, these weaknesses

will be overcome by implementing improvements and enhancements to provide more

facilities and other functions. Therefore, this chapter explains the advantages and

disadvantages of the developed system. The problems faced during the development

of the MyESIT system were also discussed. Additionally, the suggestions for future

system improvement are also discussed.

93

5.2 Project Contribution

The Evaluation System for Industrial Training (myESIT) was developed to

coincide with the development of information technology that changed the way in

today's management with concept of the web based. The system has several

advantages over other systems. The main advantage found on myESIT is that this

system allows the assessment of Industrial Training students conducted electronically

without involving the use of evaluation forms. At the same time, myESIT provides

students with the ability to upload reports and assignments to their respective

supervisors for review and evaluation. Indirectly, communication between a student

and a supervisor can be created when students can check the status of the report and

see the comments given by their supervisors on the results of the uploaded work.

Additionally, the myESIT system also enables the registration of information students

undergoing Industrial Training, academic supervisor and industrial supervisor’s

information can be done easily and in an orderly manner. Any information relating to

students, academic supervisor and industrial supervisors can be stored directly into the

database. As such, access to student data, supervisor and industry supervisors can be

done easily and quickly. The store of information into the database is safer and more

comprehensive.

The system also provides user-friendly interface. The menu on the user

interface allows the user to use the system more easily. Additionally, the myESIT

system also has a session function which helps the system in identifying whether the

user is a valid user or otherwise. This can indirectly enhance security in terms of

system usability.

94

5.3 Limitation of work

MyESIT system also has weaknesses over the system. The weakness of the

myESIT system can be seen in terms of safety. The security level for this system is

still insufficient to protect information from being infiltrated by others because only

have the username and password in order to access into myESIT system. As such, the

risk of aggression of confidential information that should not know by other user is

high. Therefore, the control of accessing this page will be further enhanced in the

future with security controls using HTTP Over TLS (Rescorla, E 2000).

In addition, only a small number of images and graphics are placed in this

system. The reduction of image and graphics on the system interface is aimed at

accelerating the page loading process. In addition, this system cannot be accessed

online. This is because the system does not have a domain that allows users using

URL to access the system via online.

95

5.4 Conclusion

As a conclusion, these projects can meet the requirements of such development that

planned. To further enhance the myESIT system, it should be reviewed from time to

time to improve the quality of the system in order to be used without any problems. It

is hoped that the myESIT system will help facilitate and save time to the management

and parties involved. In addition, this system is also expected to improve the quality of

work to be more efficient and orderly as well as to benefit the users who use it.
