A Model of an Integrated Educational Management Information System to Support Educational Planning and Decision Making: A Moroccan Case

Abstract

The planning of education in Morocco represents an essential element in the projects implementation of the educational system, on which rests the various operations of diagnostics, realization and evaluation of the educational strategic choices. The planning profession has benefited very well from technological advance, and the country has been in the process of automating information systems for a long time. But according to our analysis, the education information system will be able to be more effective if it can adopt the techniques proposed, especially with regard to the establishment of an Integrated Information System (IIS) which groups operational systems, then use a Decision Support System (DSS) to help decision makers. As well as an Early Warning System (EWS) to predict problems, and a Recommendation System (RS) to propose realistic and effective measures. The unification of such systems will improve both the quality of the educational data management and the educational administration processes.
