Abstract

The Sistem Pengurusan Data Program Pemulihan Khas (SPD) is a web-based application that focuses on managing data for a remedial education program in 28 primary schools across Cameron Highlands, Pahang. It is a computerized system designed to replace the manual system that currently uses Microsoft Excel forms to manage pupils' information. The system's features enable tracking of the pupils' academic progress and providing data for upper management decision-making. This system is intended for use by remedial teachers to manage pupils' information, school authorities to monitor the program, and education officers at the district level. In developing the system, a system prototyping development methodology was adopted. Functional requirements were gathered through meetings with clients and a prototype called "SPD" was created based on these requirements. A field study was conducted to assess the prototype's usability, and the results indicated that SPD is straightforward and easy to use. The study contributes to understanding the system requirements and user interface of the web-based application for managing information and data related to remedial education.
