An Online System For Tracking Volunteer Hours

William Ewanick



ABSTRACT

This project is about bringing a fundamental change to the way secondary education deals with the prospect of managing the volunteer hours system. The current system is an archaic paper and pen solution which is very outdated in our technological age. This system will not only simplify the administration of the program, but will come with analytical capabilities to better help students succeed. First, an introduction of the project will be given. Next, a look into the current system and its pitfalls will be given. Following, the overall goal of the project will be stated with the motivation behind it, along with the research that went into the final implementation. After this, an in-depth look into the system, it's requirements, and full implementation will be given. Finally, the exciting follow-up work will be discussed, along with a conclusion about what this system will mean for secondary education.
