An Android Mobile App Support System for Students at Tertiary Levels

Abstract

The traditional method of using Students’ Handbook to inform the Students about the Rules and Regulations of Institutions and Students Union Constitutions is not making the information to be at the finger-tip of the Students at all times. This gives room for various excuses from Students whenever they erred. Also, there is no electronics Lecture Alert System for students, since they keep their lecture time table manually. Finally, Students do the calculation of their GPA/CGPA manually and often times get wrong results leading to unnecessary agitations. Lastly, the amount incurred in printing the Handbook is enormous. This study developed an Android based Application to ameliorate the above stated challenges and hence supports Students in some of their activities that are done manually. The application is implemented as a student’s organizer through Android mobile phones
