offers its users with complete sets of features. This Learning Management System is for College of
the Holy Spirit Manila for keeping track of the organization teachers or students. Anyone can use
the Online Learning Management System easily. A Learning Management System can be used to
discuss important matters and sharing documents through the internet that improve the quality of
communication. The most interesting features of a Learning Management System are mutual
delivery of data, documents, and special catalogues for students for their learned courses. One of
the main features of a Learning Management System is its functionality. There are many similar
programs but none are as effective as a professional LMS. Learning Management System is the
best way and tool to form an e-learning environment you have always dream of having. It works
without any problems for students, teachers and corporate executives as well as people that work in
large organizations. There are no security issues with LMS and it has become an integral part of
the learning environment. Learning Management System is a way by which you organize and
manage the training of the people and it can be introduce to different types of courses and even

2. OVERVIEW
The Learning Management System is intentional for College of the Holy Spirit Manila in
recording and assesses the student performance, and monitor student participation. A Learning
Management System is a web-based application through which learning content is delivered and
managed. Typically, a Learning Management System provides an instructor with a way to create
and deliver content. An LMS may also provide students with the ability to use interactive features
such as threaded discussion and discussion forum. An LMS is tied on performance management
and it includes functionality for course catalogs, launching courses, tracking learner progress and
assessments. Also, LMS is a combination of a front-end of the learner with a back-end for the
browser interface, a real-time information that is drawn in a database. It also allows for a
automated reporting. The LMS is designed and develop to guide learners through a simple process
intended to achieve the goal of assessing and maintaining competencies and registering for
recommended courses.

The Learning Management System has the following modules namely: Login
module, Grade book module and Audit Trail module including the use of database where all the
data will be stored. The system should be viewable online and all the modules must be
functioning and working properly with all the validations for every module. By its nature, an
LMS makes all types of training content, developmental content, and performance content
available to individuals 24/7 from any location with web access. Multiple users can access the
The students of the College of the Holy Spirit Manila can view all the records of
results to determine success levels and actual time taken to complete each course and its
components.

College of the Holy Spirit Manila was started by first five sisters in 1913. Other
administrators continued the work they began. In line with the Congregation’s thrust to
empower more lay people to take on greater responsibilities as mission partners in its ministries,

support classroom teaching and offering courses to a larger population of learners. The key to
understanding the difference between LMS and other computer education terms is to understand
the systematic nature of LMS. LMS is the infrastructure that delivers and manages instructional
content, identifies and assesses individual and organizational learning or training goals, tracks
the progress of the students, collects and presents all the data for supervising the learning

3. ASSUMPTIONS/CONSTRAINTS/RISKS
3.1. Assumptions
As the project will be implemented to the client, there are issues that must be consider
such as various features that could cause accessibility problems for students and teachers with
disabilities if they are not designed with accessibility in mind. Depending on the features
enabled for a course, a student with a disability could find that participating independently and
effectively is nearly impossible. Upon the implementation of the system, there are software that
must be installed to the client’s computer in order to use the said system such as Internet
Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome as a web browser and some text editor.
Like many of the products we use every day, most Learning Management Systems
were not originally designed to work universally to work for all users, regardless of ability.
Though the situation is improving rapidly, there is still a considerable lack of understanding and
applying the concepts of universal design during the development process in product design.
Most often, developers make assumptions that include users can see the screen, the mouse is the
main tool for navigation, visual alerts can be used as signals, and that skimming the screen in a
random fashion will result in logical associations to facilitate easy, intuitive use of online
learning environments.
109 | P a g e
Learning Management System for the College of the Holy Spirit Manila
3.2. Constraints
In view of the fact that the system is online, the unavailability of internet connection in a
workspace completely disables the user from accessing the system. The system is also restricted to
those users whose workspace have limited web browser, otherwise, they will not be able to access
the system. There are some concerns, in terms of the web browser compatibility. The system will
3.3. Risks
such as analyzing requirements, engaging a vendor and getting the LMS online. The potential
for failure during the early stages of a LMS project is obvious. An often unrecognized risk to
ongoing maintenance. It requires the LMS team to be business savvy and forward focused. It
requires the LMS administrators to do menial activities, such as regular monitoring, reporting
and testing platform updates. Be sure to leverage your LMS as an ongoing strategic driver of
organizational learning.
Due to the rapid progression of technology and web-based platforms, and the rapid
change of internal business and learning focus, the developers’ current view that LMS has a 3
year shelf life before it requires a significant upgrade or change to a different LMS.

The system is known as the Learning Management System for the College of the Holy
Spirit Manila (CHSM) it is a system where the end users such as the administrator, teacher and
the student can freely navigate the system based on their tasks. The proponents decided to
propose a system such as a learning management website because the client have their websites
like a student portal hence, they do not have their own learning management website which
makes file storage, communication between the students and the teachers, online exam,

The following are the tasks required for the implementation of the system.
Clients’ Approval. The developers should request and talk to the client about the
system proposal and the features also of the system to be approved by the client. The developers
should conduct a meeting to the client to discuss the scope of the proposal.
Review / Develop Process Models. The requirements set by the developers should be
accomplish and analyze and apply the clients’ requirements and rules in the system.
Test and Validate. The system should be tested and validated through alpha and beta
testing to test any flaws of the system. The developers should also conduct a User Acceptance
test (UAT) to test the system including the client for the approval of the system or any revisions
that the client wants. This also includes the Test Scripts in order to list all the features either
failed or pass, the results will be tested by the other developers or the users.
User Training. The developers must conduct a user training in the college of the holy
spirit manila which is the client of the system. The end users are the administrator, teachers and

The security of the system is ensured in terms of the rules used by the current
website portal of the college of the Holy Spirit manila. The Learning Management System
is a bridge for connecting students and professors for their communication for school
purposes, file storage management and submission of documents on a certain class. The
privacy of the system priors on the group or a class a student is enrolled upon. The data
used in this system is from the college of the Holy Spirit manila itself which was given by
the assistant of the dean as we requested the copy of a students’ certificate of registration
(COR). The data was confidential that is why the registrar didn’t gave us much data as
what we have needed but as the developers assure that the system is flexible and capable of
The password of the users are encrypted which is inserted in the database to avoid
conflicts and to provide security to every users. The system also provides its database
accounts to be able to manage the system by the user maintenance team. The domain
accounts and the database accounts will be given to the schools’ administrator who handles
their websites and maintenance. The developers will also provide an offline copy of the

5. IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORT
To support the system during the implementation process, the system only needs a
domain and hosting for the system to be accessible online and computers for the users so that
they can manipulate the features in the system. The personnel or users needed during the
implementation can be students and professors in the school to test the features of the
system. The link of the system will be included on their portal so that the students or the
professors can visit the system. Furthermore, the browser compatibility of the system is best
viewed on browsers like Mozilla Firefox, though it can be used on the other browsers but
some of the designs are not functioning or slow to the other browsers.
The systems is best viewed and requires to have a Mozilla Firefox for the users to
fully access or appreciate the systems’ design and features because some other browsers do
not supports programming languages or functions that the system produces. The only
hardware the developers will be using is the computers (desktop or personal computers).
The developers will conduct using training for the users of the system so that they can fully
understand the features of the system and to guide them how the system works functions or
operates. Furthermore, the proponents will also provide a users’ manual so that they can
access the system or to be guided by the manual on operating the system also the manual
can help them understand more about the system and its usage.

Since we will be conducting Alpha and Beta testing, we will monitor the
performance of the system by having user training and user acceptance. User training was
conducted with a monitoring sheet that will provide all the flaws and poor performance the
client will see in the system. He may record bugs and other error that he may encounter
when they are already trying the whole system. All users will be monitored: Administrator,

focusing on the area where the system might experience difficulty in handling modules
because of the number of users that might use the system simultaneously. This will include
the module in joining the class, posting announcements and passing of activities in the
class of the student entity. In the same way, the role of the administrator must not be set
aside, for the administrator handles all the privileges that other users might not experience.
The administrator is the one who will supervise the arrangements of every user that will
use the system. On all the users, the administrator has a very wide range of authorization in

For the database environment of the system, we created databases for the
administrator entity, student entity, and for the teacher entity as the storage of
or data that is stored in a computer system. There are different types of database
but the most popular is the relational database that stores data in tables where
each row in the table holds the same sort of information. In database terms,
a table is responsible for storing data in the database. Database tables consist
of rows and columns. For storing the data, we created the some tables for the
administrator, students, and teacher entity. And because of the database, we can
easily manage the data and information of every user and it will be more
