Perancangan Sistem Informasi Akademik Administrasi Sekolah Dan Pengelolaan Data Siswa pada TK Generasi Indonesia Berbasis Web dengan Metode Agile

Abstract

The growth of information technology increasingly requires schools to manage academic administration more effectively. TK Generasi Indonesia still records student data, attendance, and progress reports through paper documents and separate Microsoft Excel files, a practice that has repeatedly caused duplicate entries, delayed reports, and files that are difficult to trace. To address this condition, the present study designs and builds a web-based academic information system covering online student admission, teacher and student data management, attendance recording, and progress-report input, developed through an iterative Agile approach that involves the school directly at every stage. System requirements were obtained through direct observation of the existing administrative workflow, interviews with the principal and administrative staff, and a review of the forms and archives already used by the school. These findings were then translated into a system design expressed through Unified Modeling Language diagrams and a relational MySQL database. Black Box Testing was subsequently carried out on every functional scenario, from the login process to report generation, and all scenarios produced valid results. The findings show that the Agile approach allowed the system to be continuously adjusted to the school's actual needs and produced an integrated platform that shortens administrative work, reduces data-entry errors, and gives parents faster access to information on their children's academic progress.
