Introduction to the Excel
application in business context
In today's digital age, efficient management of student-
course grading is crucial for ensuring smooth academic
operations and student satisfaction. A simple database
application created in MS Excel can serve as an effective
tool for managing and tracking student grades and
performance. This system can help educators and
administrators keep accurate records of student scores,
assignments, and exam results, thereby streamlining the
grading process and reducing administrative overhead. By
using Excel for grading management, schools can enhance
the accuracy, efficiency, and transparency of their grading
systems, ultimately contributing to a better educational
experience for both students and teachers.
 SCHOOL CONTEXT
Schools, especially those with limited resources, often struggle with
managing student grades and tracking academic performance.
Traditional pen and paper methods are time-consuming, prone to errors,
and inefficient in providing real-time data on student progress and
grading history. In this context, an MS Excel-based system for student-
course grading management can significantly improve the accuracy and
efficiency of tracking grades, assignments, and exam results, ensuring
timely and accurate reporting and enhancing the overall educational
experience.
OBJECTIVE
Efficiency
• Automate the process of recording
student grades and assignments
• Minimizing manual entry and errors
Tracking
• Enable tracking of student progress
throughout the course and identify
areas where students may need
additional support.
Organization
• Maintain an organized database of student
performance, making it easy to search and
retrieve information.
Accessibility
• Provide a user-friendly interface that
teachers and administrators can easily
navigate, ensuring that grade
management is straightforward and
efficient.

Database design
Required tables
To design the database, we'll need 4 tables

CLASS STUDENT

COURSE COURSE GRADING

Purpose and structure

Class Student
• Purpose: To store the information of • Purpose: To store the personal details
available classes of students.
• Structure: ClassID, ClassName • Structure: StuID (Student
ID), StuFName , StuLName , ClassID,
DOB (date of birth)

Course Course Grading

• Purpose: To store information about
the courses available
• Structure: CourseID, CourseTitle, Cre
dit: The number of credits the course is
worth
• Purpose: To store the grades that students receive in
each course
• Structure: GraID (GradeID): Each grade for a course
for a student corresponds to one GradeID, StuID,
CourseID, Grading segments including participation
grade (which counts for 10%), midterm grade (40%)
and final grade (50%).
Table relationships
■ Class and Student
From the information in Class
table, create the Student table
with student details and their
corresponding classes
■ Student and Course
grading
From the information about
students, classes, and courses,
create the Course grading table
with the grades for each course
corresponding to each student
