How online school management software will enhance efficiency of schools

developing School ERP with Cloud based Techniques

• The Cloud and Distance Learning, Skugal
  technologies
• Cloud computing as a concept goes back all the
  way to the 1960s, when Joseph C R Licklider made
  a proposal to connect people and data from
  anywhere at any time. The concept derived from
  the fact that as computer capacities kept growing
  with respect to data storage and processing, the
  owners found significant surplus capacities on
  their machines. The conclusion was why not share
  this with others in need? The problem was how to
  share it?

• Once the internet became all-pervading and
  sophisticated, the problem was solved. The
  internet would be the medium through which those
  wished to could use the huge surplus capacities
  of large computer banks owned by others.
• The Cloud then, is simply a collection of servers
  housed in massive complexes that are owned by
  some of the worlds largest corporations such as
  Microsoft, Amazon and Apple. So, Cloud Computing
  allows those, who cannot or who hesitate to
  afford the whole IT hardware paraphernalia, to
  conduct IT operations beyond the scope of their
  own systems.
• Thus Cloud Computing has gained in popularity and
  has established itself as a way to conduct
  diverse operations. Depending on how complex such
  operations are, it offers a variety of service
  options such SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and so on.
• SaaS which stands for Software as a Service is
  tailor-made for employment by schools and
  colleges conducting or planning distance learning
  measures. Sufficient for most Enterprise Resource
  Planning (ERP) exercises, SaaS is the way to go
  for any School ERP With Cloud based advantages
  accruing.

• For schools, the core activity is imparting
  education to its pupils and the time honoured
  classroom method of doing so dominates. Not only
  is this on account of resistance to change but
  also due to its effectiveness as an interactive
  way to convey learning to large numbers of
  students. Although computers have become standard
  tools of even school level education, Distance
  Learning has mostly been confined to extending
  the schools reach to just a segment. Where
  teaching has become almost instinctive for the
  teacher, distance learning can be complicated for
  both mentor and pupil. Meanwhile, the better
  institutions do develop Education Resources
  Packages (also ERP) and maintain them as hard
  copy or on computers. Thus far this is mostly
  confined to content and pedagogy.
• But the advent of COVID has brought a sudden
  surge in need for distance learning.
• This entails
• Addressing a large body of students at a given
  moment in time
• Such sessions have to be interactive students
  and teachers must communicate both ways
• While taking notes is to an extent relegated
  because a great deal of content is being sent
  through conventional ways (email and internet),
  the notebook was where students did their work.
  It was where teachers could examine how pupils
  were doing it (and correct/guide immediately) and
  the finished task. A solution is now required.
• Explanation and illustrations are vital to
  teaching necessitating virtual blackboards
• School ERP With Cloud based computing have
  answers provided they have been properly
  designed. While designing special features can
  also be incorporated such as
• To communicate between parents and school and
  between different sections of the school
• Manage online fee payment and records flag
  action and send notices
• Manage Results online record, forward, send
  intimations and store
• Flag / signal important occurrences
• Tracking features such as for buses and student
  movement
• Finally, the vital point educational institutions
  must consider is that because School ERP packages
  that are Cloud based usually come with 247
  support they pretty nearly never breakdown.
