Abstract
Most educational institutions have existing software systems that enforce a significant level of student information exchange. A straightforward integration of the technique of such an application into the E-learning management system in areas that have infrastructure challenges may not achieve the maximum results. Having existence of e-learning management system solutions are primarily web-based. Resulting from this, such current technologies also need, at the very least, secure access to internet connectivity. On the other hand, several regions around the world (especially in developing countries) are characterized with bad internet accessibility, an imbalanced spread of computer technology, and acute information breach. Therefore, this work aims to develop a system that allows students’ records to be exchanged between Strathmore university facilities given the challenge of lack of ubiquitous internet connectivity, unreliable internet access and also bridging the digital divide gap. This research will have positive impacts on different stakeholders in Strathmore University. Students can access their information evading the issue of poor or no internet connectivity. As a result of this, Strathmore University will be able to give a better and prompt service to its stakeholders. This research will be adapted using the USSD technology as a means of storage and retrieval of information. Through the help of client-server model, or client-server architecture, which is a distributed application framework dividing tasks between servers and clients, which either reside in the same system or communicate through a computer network or the Internet. The client requests while the server supplies the administration. This client relies on sending a request to another program in order to access a service made available by a server. The server runs one or more programs that share resources with and distribute work among clients. In order to process the AJAX requests sent from the client to the server, the server needs information where the requests will arrive and how the requests should be handled. Each request needs to be routed to a specific URL. The client server relationship communicates in a request–response messaging pattern and must adhere to a common communications protocol, which formally defines the rules, language, and dialog patterns to be used. Client-server communication typically adheres to the TCP/IP protocol suite. According to TCP/IP protocol suite, the data are divided into small fragments, also known as packets. These packets contain the data and addresses of the source and destination for communication among endpoints. With the object oriented analysis and design, the proposed system will be able to deliver different functional modules of the system.
