The picture above shows the user case diagram of the USEP's enrollment system. It shows how the process goes on.

After the student goes to the registrar's office and completed all the requirements, it means that he/she is officially enrolled, but then it is also required for the student to go to the library in order to validate their library identification card.

SAD Assignment 3

Among the data gathering techniques used in systems analysis are interviewing, document review, observation, and use of questionnaires. Considering your personality type, which of these would you be most comfortable with and why?

Among the data gathering techniques used in systems analysis, considering my personality, I would be most comfortable in observation. I'm not the type of person who can easily interact or talk to another person whom I just met. I'd rather observe what's happening and have some information, but then observation alone cannot be used to gather much information about something or about a company.

I can also use the techniques which are the document review and use of questionnaires to get the information I don't get in the first technique I used.

SAD Assignment 2

Following the SDLC model, please discuss the acitvities/steps that you will undertake in order to achieve your objective/s in life. what approach(es) would you use, predictive/adaptive?.. your own version of SDLC pls...

For me, life is a matter of choice. So, if I would choose between the two approaches, I would choose both. We can predict what will happen in the choice we pick but not all the time. Life is more on the adaptive approach, we must adapt on the changes because that is the only way we can go on.

If I will create my own version of SDLC, it will be like this...

Reflecting
This phase will really help in achieving what I want to achieve. Reflecting on my performance in the past, whether it is positive or negative, will help in making decisions in the upcoming events. To be honest, I really don't know until now what will be my goals after graduation.

Setting Goals
After reflecting, this comes next. Here is the time when I set my real goals in life.

Planning
From the word itself, this is the time when I make plans to the goals I set.

Implementing
Here, I implement what I have reflected, the goals I set and the plans I made.

Correcting while Improving
In this phase, it is like correcting an error. I will do my best to correct what should be corrected in order to improve my performance.
