Smart Skim Pinjaman Buku Teks (SBPT) School Operation System in Malaysia

摘要

Skim Pinjaman Buku Teks (SPBT) is a textbook loan program for elementary and secondary schools in Malaysia. This program is an initiative system by the Malaysia Ministry of Education to help students in the school by providing them with textbooks for their learning purpose. The current SPBT system is handled by storing all the records into a book or a file that can cause data missing, data redundant and incorrect data stored in the system. This project presents a new system for the textbook loan system known as Smart Skim Pinjaman Buku Teks (SBPT) School Operation system (SSSOS). This system upgrades the conventional method that manually records the loan information to a systematic approach using a web-based management system. The rapid application development (RAD) cycle is used as a methodology to develop the SSSOS system. The proposed system can efficiently handle borrowing and returning processes and reduce the textbook loan process period. This system also provides a complete report related to the textbook, such as the current status of a book and the previous information of the borrower. The proposed system can be used to enhance the conventional SPBT system in handling the textbook loan program. The system has been tested in Sekolah Kebangsaan Gambang, Pahang, where an SPBT coordinator acts as a client for the system.
