INTRODUCTION OF THE TITLE

Speak n’ Smile is an educational assistance center that teaches online English as a second
language (ESL) to the students. The problem is they promote only their company through their
banners and communication to the people. It’s hard for them to do it because it takes a lot of time
to their work instead they can use their time to teach their students. To solve their problems, we
proposed a website for their company. We explained to them the benefits of it to their company
and to their (future) students.

We created a Website that will help the company to solve their problem. It will also help to their
students to easily access their site if ever they will need some information regarding to the
company. The site has some information about their company and how the students can access
them.

It is also a great help to the proponents to improve their capability to plan, design and formulate
the site.

METHOD RESEARCH USED

In accumulating a resources website, the proponent used different and definite method for
research. In gathering a research the proponent conduct an interview, observation, and internet
related system.

regarding the details in the center to acquire information.

information about the company and how they conduct their lessons online. It was given and
explained by the manager to help the proponent.

• INTERNET

school/site is the TalkEnglish. They have information regarding to their company. They have an
example of a sentence that the students can click and practice speaking by repeating after the
audio file. They decided to develop the “Click, Listen and Repeat” functionality.
SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE (SDLC)

The systems development life cycle (SDLC) is a conceptual model used in project management
that describes the stages involved in an information system development project, from an initial
feasibility study through maintenance of the completed application.

• Identifying the problems, opportunities and objectives

as software is always of a large system (or business), work begins by establishing the
requirements for all system elements and then allocating some subset of these
requirements to software. This system view is essential when the software must interface
with other elements such as hardware, people and other resources. System is the basic
and very critical requirement for the existence of software in any entity. So if the system is
not in place, the system should be engineered and put in place. In some cases, to extract
the maximum output, the system should be re-engineered and spruced up. Once the
ideal system is engineered or tuned, the development team studies the software
requirement for the system.

To be able to identify the problem opportunity and objective of the website the proponent
conducted an interview with the manager to pin- point the problem regarding the center
website. Progressively the proponents identify the flow of the center during the extended
conversation problem and solution for the problem was formulated.

• Determining the Information Requirement

The next phase of SDLC determining the information requirement .This process is also
known as feasibility study. In this phase, the development team visits the customer and
studies their system. They investigate the need for possible software automation in the
given system. By the end of the feasibility study, the team furnishes a document that
holds the different specific recommendations for the candidate system. It also includes
the personnel assignments, costs, project schedule, target dates etc.... The requirement
gathering process is intensified and focused specially on software. To understand the
nature of the program(s) to be built, the system engineer or "Analyst" must understand
 the information domain for the software, as well as required function, behavior,
performance and interfacing. The essential purpose of this phase is to find the need and
to define the problem that needs to be solved.

The proponent will start with documentation of requirement needed in gathering

information like simple interviewing, questioning, and website work product. The
proponents analyze and manage the requirement and final output of determining
requirement stage.

• Systems analysis Needs

The next phase of SDLC analyzing system needs. Refines project goals into defined
functions and operation of the intended application. Analyzes end-user information
needed, the development team pin point a possible output of a website. One such tool is
brainstorming again a special tools and techniques help the proponent make requirement
determination was applied in this phase to gathered data for a possible output of the
website.

• Designing the Recommended System

the next phase, the designing the recommended system, the software's overall structure
and its nuances are defined. In terms of the client/server technology, the number of tiers
needed for the package architecture, the database design, the data structure design etc...
are all defined in this phase. Describes desired features and operations in detail,
including screen layouts, business rules, transaction and other documentation.

The proponent started to design and output the website making the environment friendly
in order for the user and client to understand quietly the website.

• Development and Maintaining the System

The next phase of SDLC is the Development and Maintaining the System. The objective
of the Development Phase will be to convert the deliverables of the Design Phase into a
 complete information system. Although much of the activity in the Development Phase
addresses the computer programs that make up the system, this phase also puts in place
the hardware, software, and communications environment for the system and other
important elements of the overall system.

After designing the website some tasks and activities may have been perform by the
proponents and developer documentation may be appropriate to meet some
documentation requirements Plans for conducting the activities of the development phase
should be developed, documented and executed.

• Testing and maintaining the system

Before a website can be used , it must be tested .In this phase of SDLC , the testing and
maintaining the system .After the proponent generation of codes, testing of all the
modules is performed. All modules are integrated together and proper testing tools are
selected for error checking. Maintenance is necessary after the development of a
successful project. It is obvious that changes occur once the project is handed over to the
end user. The developers must develop the project in such a way that it is adaptable to
those changes. The main operation of the software must not be affected by those
changes.

The website perform a series of test different types of testing like unit testing, volume
testing, link testing, load testing, performance testing, download testing. The proponents
correct an error and state the correct way.

• Implementation and Evaluation the system

In this phase the proponent initiated after the system has been tested and accepted by
the user. Activities in this phase include notification of implementation to end users,
execution of the previously defined training plan, data entry or conversion, certification
and accreditation and post implementation evaluation. This phase continues until the
system is operating in production in accordance with the defined user requirements.
The proponent presented and tested the website to the manager for evaluation. It was
tested and clearly so that the user will familiar with it.
CHAPTER V

the client to serve them.

In the interview and observation occurred, the proponents just found out that the problem
these encounter is that lack of promotion to their company and few features. They don’t have
enough features to inform the client.

Because of the said problem, proponents design a website that aims to help the future
benefits of the said company and at the same time to the owner. To lessen the problem
encountered, the proponents proposed a website that aimed to accomplish a site that will provide
promotion to the assessment center and to encourage the viewer or client to try on their
operation.

observe that there are certain things that should be done with the help of the modern
technologies for much greater benefits.

Educational Assistance Center. The proposed website will give more benefits and help a lot to the
said business.

CONCLUSION

The succeeding analysis of determining the problem on the said company lead the
proponents to build and design a website that would help a lot to both the owner and the
business itself.

The proponents conclude that generating the proposed website will give more advantages
and benefits in the said business.
