ABSTRACT
Online Blogging System is implemented
in Blogger. In existing system information is passed to all levels of the
department manually. The methodology adopted for this project is the Structured
System Analysis and Design Methodology (SSADM). The Proposed Online Blogging
System provide option where the Head of Department
can pass information to all levels of the department with ease, Update record
of Events and Current News about the Department, Provide online interactive
forum for students of the department.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
A
blog is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular
entries of commentary, descriptions of events, interaction, or other material
such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in
reverse-chronological order.
Educators
are using blogs in many ways including as online portfolios, for teachers and
students for provision of course content, as a record of field notes, as
discipline specific spaces for knowledge sharing, as a space for student
dialogue and for class administration.
Blogs
can be used to facilitate group working and discussion forum between the
lecturers and students, a number of commentators argue that blogs encourage
reflective learning (Chen 2005); they can be used as a diary to keep a record
of achievement and of interesting material. The way that blogs are typically
organised allows the reader/viewer to re-contextualise posts according to categories
and dates as well as allowing the user to use key words to search for posts on
any topic. Blogs can decrease feelings of isolation for distance students
(Dickey, 2004), and promote the shift from surface to deep learning (Bartlett-Bragg,
2003; Oravec, n.d., in Williams & Jacobs, 2004). Ferdig and Trammel (in
Williams & Jacobs, 2004) argue that the immediacy and commentary based
systems of blogging lead to reflection and analysis and contextualisation of
learning via hyperlinks. They further contend that blogs are more successful in
promoting interactivity that is conversational as opposed to other online
discussion. Research also suggests that blogs allow a more creative response
from students (Oravec,2003) and that the open and interlinked nature of blogs
connects learners to contexts beyond the classroom (Baim, 2004; Halavais,
2004).
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The
problem of the existing system has the following short comings:-
i.
The Head of Department (HOD) find it difficult to pass
vital information to all levels of the department.
ii.
There is no records of Events and News about the
Department
iii.
No interactive forum between students of the
department for cooperates and project work.
1.3 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
The
objective of this study is to develop software that will:-
i.
Provide option where the Head of Department can pass
information to all levels of the department with ease.
ii.
Update record of Events and Current News about the
Department
iii.
Provide online interactive forum for students of the
department.
