1.0. Introduction 1.1. Purpose
The purpose of the Student Management System(SMS) is to integrate the benefits of a classroom with the convenience of a feedback. It will usher in the immense flexibility and sophistication in the existing learning platform structures for the administrator and teaching authority, with the perfect blend of synchronous and asynchronous interaction. With this software, students can communicate with the higher authorities just via few clicks. They can share their opinions, problems, ideas in order to sort out the issues in the current prevailing system. It provides a means of collaborative learning for the students, that there is someone who may answer their queries.
It is totally based upon the concept of interaction among:
Students and administrator(management of university) Students and teachers (for collaborative communication) Teachers and admin (for feedback, to be acted upon) 1.2. Scope of Project
This project has a lot of scope for future development. Developing an interactive student management system to promote a greater count of students to splurge into the field of providing better education. This idea came to our mind due to the mismanagement of communication observed frequently during the session resulting into a miscommunication among students and higher managing authorities. We seriously thought of having
representatives from each class communicating to the head of each department and the chain ends up at the chairman. So, in this manner we can make the whole system co-ordinate and work out the suggestions and issues which can easily yield strategies and methods to bring prosperity and harmony in the system. And all of these ideas are easily implemented by the software.

Developing a virtual classroom system to promote a greater count of students to splurge into the field of Education. It integrates the benefits of a physical classroom with the convenience of a ‘nophysicalbar’ virtual learning environment, minus the commuting hazards and expenses. It will usher in the immense flexibility and sophistication in the existing learning platform structures, with the perfect blend of synchronous and asynchronous interaction. It provides a means of collaborative
learning for the students. 2.2 SYSTEM INTERFACE: System interface:-
