Abstract

Aim: The Student Welfare and Formation Office (SWAFO) of De La Salle University-Dasmarinas, Philippines, used Classification Techniques and Data Envelopment Analysis to analyze student demographics and disciplinary infractions. This paper describes how Knowledge Discovery was used to improve the management of the university’s portfolio of student services.Methodology: To identify the effective Decision-Making Unit (DMU) attributed to colleges, the Data Envelopment Analysis was used. The correlation between student demographics and offending behavior was analyzed using the CHAID algorithm.Findings: The CHAID algorithm is implemented in a software application that is designed to be a predictive analytical software application that predicts student offenses, and a remediation plan is developed as a result. The SWAFO staff and five (5) IT professionals evaluate the software.Implications/Novelty: This research will help SWAFO’s process improvement initiative and delve deeper into the change by utilizing the remediation system plan. This work adds to our understanding of DEA and the design of remediation systems in higher education.

Abstract

Aim: This paper aims to provide information on how well college students fared on the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) and Microsoft Technology Associate (MTA) exams. The MOS and MTA programs offer extensive resources to aid teachers in achieving world-class ICT integration in the classroom.Methodology: Student exam takers’ Certiport results from De La Salle University-Dasmarinas in Dasmarinas, Cavite, Philippines, were analyzed using a quantitative-descriptive secondary data analysis.Findings: There was a 34% success rate for those attempting certification, a 63% failure rate, and a 3% incomplete rate. The results of this test will attest to the student’s readiness for entry-level employment. Teachers and students alike can benefit from this certification program, which makes it simple to test their knowledge of productivity tools via the web.Implications/Novelty: Taking into account the range of the fundamentals and precepts of MOS and MTA, the findings of this research are useful for educational institutions because they can be used as the basis for crafting a program or an improvement plan for the curriculum, facilities, or training geared towards these certifications schemes.
