* student - the actor. She/ he must have 2 copies of clearance. 1. advising - a student must first go to their respective adviser to, of course, advise. The adviser must approve all the subject that a student may have or must take in the upcoming semester. He/ she must have the clearance (signed by the adviser, etc.). The student must follow all the rules and regulations (in the grading system ) to avoid dismissal. :)

2. Miscellaneous - pay all the miscellaneous i.e., the headlight, OCSC, OCLC, or the organization fee (if available ^-^ ). Don't forget to keep the receipts.

3. Scholar - a scholar student must validate their scholarship card. Non-scholar student can proceed now to the encoder.

4. Encoder - fill up first the PRF given by the adviser and submit it to the encoder along with the receipts (miscellaneous). If she/he's a scholar submit also the validated scholarship card. After waiting don't forget your COR.

5. Cashier - * scholar - submit your COR, scholarship card and all the receipts.
* non-scholar- pay for the partial/ full amount of your tuition. Wait for the receipt.

6. Registrar - present all the" documents" you have.
Submit:
1 copy of your clearance, receipts, cor, and *scholarship card
*scholar students
the student is now officially enroll but she/he must still validate their e-card (library id)

7. Library - Present all the "papers" you have; the cor, the receipts, etc. A student must validate their library card to avoid sanctions. :))


DONE - the student is now officially enrolled and validated ( library id)

University of Southeastern Philippines Enrollment System for old student in the Institute of Computing...

comfy???(assingment no.3)

Question:
Among the data gathering techniques used in systems analysis are interviewing, document review, observation, and use of questionnaires. Considering your personality type, which of these would you be most comfortable with and why?

Answer:
Others say, ask a question and you'll know the person BUT I SAY observe in silence and you'll see behind a face in one's personality.

Observation is either an activity of a living being (such as a human), consisting of receiving knowledge of the outside world through the senses, or the recording of data using scientific instruments. The term may also refer to any datum collected during this activity.-wikipedia

Well I guess that explain all. I would prefer the observation, not only because I'm comfortable with it but nonetheless (for me) it's the best way to know the real,real,real deal.

adaptive or predictive... which is which?

problem: Following the SDLC model, please discuss the acitvities/steps that you will undertake in order to achieve your objective/s in life. what approach(es) would you use, predictive/adaptive?.. your own version of SDLC pls...

as for me, my first step would be having a concrete plan in order for me to achieve my objectives in life. Everything starts with a plan (though I'm a go-with-the-flow person sometimes), it would be a better foundation before anything else. The second will be my starting point. I mean it must be more on work rather than imagining, but of course thinking would be part of it. And the rest? Oh! let God be my guide :). Prayers would be my best action. haha.

What approaches would I use,predictive/adaptive?

In my decisions in life, I am an adaptive-person. Like I said in the upper part of this I don't usually make plans in anything and everything that comes along my way ( my school life would be a different story hahaha :) ) It's not that I'm a totally irresponsible lady, what I mean is that there were things in life which is not worth thinking for. And I would rather disregard it for I know God has a purpose about it.
Yet things in school is really far different among those of my life. In school it's better that adaptive and predictive goes in hand. We'll use predictive in order for as to have this what we called sop or the standard operating procedure. The teachers will,of course, set a deadline. And as a student, we know the a deadline is a deadline(but it's really up to the teacher if he/she will give us the 'palugit' hahahaha). Kidding aside, on the contrary adaptive must also be implemented What's the benefit? Everybody must be open in all posibilities, other ideas, brilliant opinions and anything under the sun for we never know what will happen next. It may result to a better or the best project ever.

-Lizyl Mercurio-

Our former professor, Dr. Tamara Cher Mercado told us that we were expected to make and implement a system of a certain company/establishment required in the course System Analysis and Design 1 commonly known as SAD1.

The system:

How we arrive with this proposal?
My younger brother (one of the tutor in the said center) once told me about their way of record keeping, payroll,etc. Me, as a Computer Science student, found it really interesting. Payroll use only basic mathematical operations but what bothered me most is that the system must be reliable in such a way that it will operate from the basic informations to the everyday transactions. Me, together with my three(3) group mates agreed to develop the At Home with Sensei tutorial center's System. The said project does not only focus more about on the payroll but rather it dwells also on the day-to-day negotiation of the center. One of those is the logging in&out of the tutor, how will the the system handle if the tutor is a reliever, keeping the monthly record for year or even years, the income of the tutor that will depend on the rate of the tutee, and other things that could a tutorial center might encounter. The system isn't that simple, I should say. And fortunately, Dr. Mercado allowed us to start our proposal. Headstrong, we started from then on.

Is it worth it?

Before 2008 welcomes 2009 Dr. Tamara said 'babye' to SAD1 subject that we are now under to Dr. Randy S. Gamboa's class(advisory). Tension rises. :). Yet we never lose hope. To the question 'Is it worth the three or more years of learnings we get from the university?' I definitely say YES.
For almost four(4) years, being a student of Computer Science in USEP is not more on developing only our knowledge, hence the values and wisdom are also one of the element of it. I believe, attaining a system in a wrong way is worse than having a simple yet reliable one. What I want to say is that, our proposed system might be common or simple or whatever as long as we make it from the smallest informations to the largest details, it is more than anything else.

SAD refLectioN (not the emotion, rather the subject)

Last December 18,2008 we had this sort'of make up class with Sir Gamboa. The first meetings' really unforgettable. Me and my friend/classmate Anne magaway had this ritual for the virgins. aw. Haha.

The start...

(im getting a headache) mmmm... to start, the reporters, with their perspective topics (of course), bound to give new ideas yet unfortunately we had the 'right topic at the wrong time' (same here classmates). for a one'n a half day we discussed 7 chapters a row from (Chap.2 to Chap8 from 8 am to 5pm). They, I mean we, absolutely wanted to deliver another 'dagdag kaalaman' to our classmates. I just want to connect my report (stakeholders) to other topics(haha).. Stakeholders; those who are interested in the successful system. My point is, how could we implement a system we don't have this people?

To the other reporters - "job well done classmates".. It's nice to know that we finished it for a short time.

To Sir Gamboa - what else can I say but good luck to me. haha.

Who am I?

me?
haha! im really dorky. i speak my mind.
im always a no-show in school, BUT!, i always pass(in minor subjects).
haha! i never get into things i can't handle.
i don't make plans, no, never. i always take everything as come-what-may
or if-it-happens-it-happens. i always take it easy, but most of the
time, I GO BEYOND MY LIMITS. i love walking around and taking photos
of random people(if i have the camera of course), i love
talking and talking to people im comfortable communicating with.
i love those good listeners.if i find you too boring,
you couldnt really expect me to start a conversation, you could start though and
expect the conversation to be flowing afterwards (if i would feel friendly that is).
if anybody would force me to say something just for the sake of it,
they would have to wait for one hundred
years until they get something from me.
i love intellectual conversations with intellectual people
but i hate debating or arguing in things which are SENSELESS.
im the laziest texter you'll ever know haha!
well considering the fact that i rarely got load.
unpredictable at times,im kind'a MOODY.
i am also sweet to people that i really like but
tend to be a snob to stranger.im not really snob,it's just i dont know them.;].
yet,i don't pick friends.
i seldom say the word "promise".and if i say it,i really mean it.
i eat a lot (i know right, with this skinny
frame, it's not obvious, haha!). i treasure the people around me.
i don't go hatin, know what im sayin? there are also times where
i just wanna be alone. i do crazy things, really crazy things.
i do drink ocassionally.i got drunk for countless of times but i never throw, haha!
smoke?uuh, let's move on (haha!).drugs?a big No-No for me.
im such an internet freak, i could sit infront of the computer for hours and do nothing.
i love kids, but im not planning to have one soon, nor sooner. haha!
actually,it'll take millions of word to describe my personality, haha!
the sure thing,and i know all of you will agree,is that..

IM NOT PERFECT ^___^
