Description
Summary:University students are having challenges in catching various events and programs which are being organized and held at their university. Currently, traditional methods of event notification, including posters and social media messages are weak in ensuring student awareness about various university’s events. Many activities are held in low attendance which leads to missing opportunities for students’ engagements and eventually the students may lose track of any events or programmes that have taken place on campus. This research aims to develop an event management system, UiTM e-Event, based on the predictive Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). The predictive SDLC methodology was chosen for the structured approach to cater well-defined requirements. This research conducts a systematic process from planning and analysis to design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. The centralized platform known as UiTM e-Event can minimize the gap of communication, maximize the number of participants in an event and bring vibrancy to the campus life. This research also aims at addressing practical issues and able to add a value to the body of knowledge in the field of event management and information systems. UiTM e-Event integrates information pertaining to events, enhancing student involvement in such events, and improving event management at UiTM Machang. The system gives advantages such as assisting students to discover and engage with upcoming events, help to promote events organized by students or staff, facilitate the attraction of a larger audience and encourage greater participation among UiTM Machang users. This research also highlights the users’ feedback by performing UiTM e-Event usability testing and the feedback generally has resulted positive feedback from the students.
