A study of Management Information System report of students performance in school education of Ranchi in Jharkhand

Abstract

In the school education, we mostly measure the academic performance of students in terms of % of marks, pass, fail, rank, division etc based out of the education provided. But now we should think beyond this parameter, an in-depth analysis of each student s performance by evaluating the management information system reports. newlineThis MIS report will help to teachers, principal, students and parents who are the key stakeholder in school education to analyse the student s performance. It also helps to School Management to develop policy and procedures which in turn improves the quality of education. This MIS reports will be prepared based out of raw data, which is easily available in our regular teaching classes. These raw data are processed and transformed into information using IT computation technique. This Paper explains the concept of data, related information and MIS. The importance of MIS, its rapid growth and latest trends in MIS are discussed in this paper. A MIS tool has been developed to generate the MIS report automatically, after surveying the different schools of Ranchi to understand the teaching techniques. Right now, we have different manual techniques or pen and paper methods to maintain such students performance report. Now we have the technology era where information must be in finger tips. The parents or school management is also expecting the information as on demand. newlineComputers began to emerge in the 1940s and 50s, punch cards in 1970s were replaced by magnetic storage media like tapes and disks. newlineBetween the 1970s and the early 1990s, as computers got smaller, quicker, and more affordable, MIS expanded beyond accounting to include inventory, sales, marketing, production, and engineering.
