Interactive website on information dissemination

Abstract

A school is an educational institution for imparting knowledge to children. In an age where information acquisition about a school is assuming astronomical heights, the need for cost-effective and efficient information transmission methods cannot be overemphasized; hence the use of the website of a school to disseminate information is advised. This study examines the process of disseminating information on a school website using a college in the Northcentral of the six-geopolitical zone in Nigeria as a case study. A prior study of manually or locally dissemination of information in a school was carried out and its limitations are highlighted. A website that is able to handle processes like admission, comment, and newsletter has been analyzed and developed using hyper-text language, cascading style sheet, hypertext preprocessor. The study results in solving the information dissemination problem in the college with the development of an educational interactive website.
