“…As per a study conducted at Texas State University [3], students show a preference for conventional classroom teaching. One of the reasons for such a preference of conventional in-the-class education over distance education is the limited opportunity for synchronous teacher-student interactivity in a virtual environment [4].…”

While distance education is becoming increasingly popular, it suffers from the problem of a lack of real-time interactivity between the instructor and the students, as well as an absence of peer interaction between students. A technique used in face-to-face classrooms to improve student-teacher interaction and promote peer discussion among students is the use of clickers, or student response systems. In this paper we describe the adaptation of clickers in distance education for a multiple classroom environment. We discuss the design and development of a distributed architecture for the implementation of a student response system for multiple remote classrooms. We report on a pilot implementation and discuss problems faced and solutions implemented.

Automated Information Systems has played a major role in the growth, advancement, and modernization of our daily work processes. The main purpose of this paper is to develop a safe and secure web based attendance monitoring system using Biometrics and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology based on multi-tier architecture, for both computers and smartphones. The system can maintain the attendance records of both students and teachers/staff members of an institution. The system can also detect the current location of the students, faculties, and other staff members anywhere within the domain of institution campus. With the help of android application one can receive live feeds of various campus activities, keep updated with the current topics in his/her enrolled courses as well as track his/her friends on a real time basis. An automated SMS service is facilitated in the system, which sends an SMS automatically to the parents in order to notify that their ward has successfully reached the college. Parents as well as student will be notified via e-mail, if the student is lagging behind in attendance. There is a functionality of automatic attendance performance graph in the system, which gives an idea of the student's consistency in attendance throughout the semester.
