Inspiration

Many reported failures in courses thought in the tertiary institutions can be attributed to the careless of the course representative or the teaching assistant who failed to submit an assignment paper to the lecturer. Such careless could lead to a zero mark for the victim whose paper was declared missing or simply not found. The manual method of submitting assignments to the course lecturer or directly to the lecturer in most Universities is simply not effective as these papers could get damaged or get missing due to the carelessness of the course representative or the lecturer. Moreover, assignments that are large in terms of pages or volume could easily discourage a student from submitting due to financial constraints brought about by high cost of printing an assignment. All these problems highlighted are the main reasons the researcher is developing an electronic assignment submission system to curtail these challenges and make studying more enjoyable in our tertiary institutions.

What it does

SubMito- an Online Assignment Submission and Management System is an effective, interactive learning platform, which can improve the learning quality. The system allows students to submit assignments online to a particular course lecture effectively and it saves the time and cost for teachers by enabling them to put up a fast response for students as well as increasing the quality of the feedback provided to students.

How we built it

The system has been developed in Codeignitor.Codeignitor is a framework for PHP. The front end is developed using HTML, Bootstrap and CSS. The back end is developed using MySQL.
