CHAPTER 1
1.1 Project Background
The purpose of this document is to generate a mini project report regarding the monitoring the CMS performance for Kolej Poly-Tech Mara Kuala Lumpur. This analysis is conducted because I want to identify the peak hour usage of the CMS. I ‘m choosing to monitor this CMS performance access because I need a specific time to identify the off-peak hour within working hour. All the analysis will give me the benefit as a CMS user to access the CMS during off-peak hour
1.2 Problem Statement
There’s a few problem statement can be recognize from the proposal such as:
- Student may encounter the slow access to the CMS during peak hour
- Within the slow access, student need more time to waiting the web browser to display the whole CMS page.
- The slow respond time may lead to the less productivity because student are wasting their time waiting to the web browser loading the whole CMS page.
1.3 Objectives
- Help student of Kolej Poly-Tech Mara to choose the off-peak hour to access the CMS.
- Giving awareness to the student to avoid logging in to the CMS during peak hour that may lead to the congested network traffic.
- In order to measure the respond time, this research will be conducted from 9.00 am until 5.00 pm.
1.4 Project Scope
As far as I concern, CMS is the most responsive and comprehensive student administration system, which cover all the phases of student life cycle at the college. All the detail information about the student right from his / her admission until they are graduates and becomes alumnus.
So in order to complete this project, Author will use the Internet Tools Software that called as Gomez Network. Gomez Network is a marvelous tool to measure ...

...re proceed to print out their exam slips, they need to verify their financial status trough the CMS.
1.10 Conclusion
The conclusion is, the peak hour for the KPTM KL CMS responding times are starting from 10.00 am. So the students of KPTM KL are not advising to surfing the CMS within that time. So this action might be helpful to reduce the congested traffic within the KPTM KL CMS websites.
So student of KPTM KL would be advised to surfing the KPTM KL CMS after the peak hour that starting at 11.00 am. By following the recorded time, the student might be able to use the CMS services seamlessly. By conducting the series of test for measure time responding in KPTM KL CMS, hopefully it may be able to help student to choose a right time before using the CMS services

In response to the question set, I will go into detail of the study, consisting of the background, main hypotheses, as well the aims, procedure and results gathered from the study; explaining the four research methods chosen to investigate, furthering into the three methods actually tested.
Ease of use is defined as ‘‘the degree to which a person believes that using a particular system would be free of physical and mental effort’’ Davis (1989, p. 320). According to Lim et al. (2007), the main factor influencing trainees’ learning performance depends on how easy it is to use or to access a site. Easy navigation through the system and clear online help menu as well as instruction help employees to get the information they need easily and quickly
One of the most widely used technologies is the Internet, or also known as the World Wide Web. “In August 1981 about 200 computers hosted Web servers. By July 1998 there were over 36 million Web servers, that are hosts to approximately 150 million people” (Strauss). The Internet proves to be very beneficial to education, since students have unlimited access to millions of websites with tons of information. There are only so many newspapers, journals and magazines that you can find in libraries or subscribe to. Therefore, the Internet offers an unlimited pile of information that students can always have. Moreover, students are enriched with the most current information in any subject, along with regular updates. Students are able to use the Internet anytime of day, as long as they have a computer at hand. The research process will not have to end when the school day is over (Wissick, 82).
Operations Management Metrics Operations Management Process is the central artery within the organization because it produces the planning process for goods and services, which are its reason for existence. Operations management is linked to all organizations, as every organization produces either a product or a service. However, it cannot be said to be the most important function since there are other functional areas and boundaries within an organization. In today's fast changing world, organizations have to have a tendency towards being efficient, effective and innovative in the changing environment to succeed. Operations Management has to use metrics in order for them to accomplish their task and be successful with minimal interruptions within the organization.
Due to the use of internet, the learning management system becomes the virtual classroom, and I avail this facility off the campus"
In her English 101 class not only do students come for the lecture hour on Monday and Wednesday, but every Friday there’s an online portion that they must complete. However, this can cause problems for students due
...; nonetheless, it poses to be a great distraction to students and their peers. Bugeja, in his article, believes that until the ability to use technology is reassessed, issues regarding Internet use will only increase in higher education institutions. The rapid advancement in technology has taken over the classroom in a negative aspect and will continue to do so unless measures are taken to permit internet access for educational purposes only.
Where to combine face-to-face learning or traditional learning and online learning. The method used for its manufacture uses a skill-driven method. In this skill-driven method, learners still need to attend formal classes scheduled by the school. As for online learning, using a simple website. This website can be accessed by students, teachers, and administrators who are tasked to monitor the website. To be able to use this website, students need to create an account that contains the student's brief data. After that, subsequent access only needs to enter student ID and password that have been registered before. On the website, it will contain some material that can be used by students as a reference in learning. It also contains some tasks assigned by the teacher to be collected at the next meeting or emailed to the teaching
Time management is one of the most crucial factors to college success for every student in college. Firstly, while living on campus, time usually isn’t an issue to students because they live on school grounds. There are many advantages that come with time and one of them is getting to class on time. However, this is actually the opposite for commuters because getting to class on time is quite a struggle. They have to struggle to wake up earlier than usual in order to use the public transportation. Students living on campus also have more access to on-site facilities because they don’t have to worry about going home so there is no time limit on how long they occupy these areas. An example is staying in the library because this is where you can get help from tutors on subjects you are struggling with. Also, they can use the writing center for as long as it is open without worrying about time. In contrast, commuters are limited to the use of these facilities because they have to take time into consideration while staying at the library or work...
Every five students has one set of computer provided by the public schools in US. For the very first time the standardized tests were seen to be administered by technological devices rather than paper or pencil. Despite the influx of new technology, the pace of teachers is found to be low in terms of teaching. Very little evidence shows that the online learning is really improving the learning outcomes for students. There is still the discussions going around for the new challenges provided by the new technologies. Digital distractions have developed concerns to access the use of technology and widen the gaps. The technology has its ends associated with big trends, opportunities as well as technology
Students do things like write papers, access test and quizzes, and even visit their teacher’s web page where they find information needed for the course. This may seem easy to students who have always had internet in their home with a computer they can work on, but what about the students who have no idea what the internet is, or don’t own a computer or device they can to practice on. This is one of the key reason digital literacy is important. Students no matter the age or background should feel comfortable using the internet at school. They should always feel caught up in classes because if they don’t know how to it will be taught to them. Schools should make sure students are up to speed and no child is left
their dorm room or apartment is sit down at their computer and go online. They proceed to either, read their e-mail, check their online courses for new assignments, or go on one of the many communication websites or programs that are available currently to this generation. None of this would be possible without the readily available Internet access that we often take for granted. The Internet has proven not only useful for entertainment purposes, but has also dramatically changed the educational approach, for both students and educators, and the way knowledge is being obtained.
Some of the advantages of digital learning are providing a flexible way of education from anytime, anywhere and any place where Internet connection and computers is accessible. It is also an affordable way of learning which reduces travelling cost for coming to classrooms. Students can take the exams and quizzes over the web; even they can submit assignments over the Internet. Instructors can provide all the materials online which in turn no cost for paper and printing. Ernst & Young University had 35% cost decrease because of virtual learning (Hall, 2000).
There are many advantages to online learning, it affects the way people can learn. According to “Effects of Technology on Classrooms and Students”, “students have a greater willingness to write or work on computational skills”. “They say student like the immediate results of having online learning.” Another advantage is that students can learn at their own pace. With learning at their own pace they will be able to actually know the information well. If, they are in a regular classroom setting they may no...
Today, it is so clear to see many significant changes in the education around the world because of computer. Almost all schools and universities have become involved with computer’s system to provide an appropriate environment for students to study or prepare for classes. For example, Oklahoma State University provides a crucial program called Desire to Learn (D2L) which is an online website made for teachers to post assignments, grades, and other notes related to the courses. And this program is so helpful because it gives students a nice chance to study from home, participate on announced events, or even avoid students from getting in trouble such as receiving email when weather conditions are not good to attend classes. Moreover, in the past students and researchers used to face difficulties to get information and data related to subject. However, nowadays computer makes it easier because of the gigantic data and information that computer has. Computer has a revolutionary influence in enhancing our education.
