Reasons for t"e Stud.
Sin&e te implementation of +e(&ast on 9M9 1ara:a*ue &ampus) it did
not gi'e a signifi&ant impa&t to te students due to te la&k of intera&tion
5e2press of tougts and opinions6 and (oredom. #t;s 'ery diffi&ult to maintain
people;s attention for more tan parti&ular time. "e e*uipment &urrently used
5tele'ision and satellite dis6 as &ertain te&ni&al pro(lems 5signal disruptions6
tat o&&ur migt &ause some sort of delays tat make una(le te students to
attend teir %e(&ast sessions) or possi(ly making te students a'e no interest
at all to listen or attend te +e(&ast sessions due to diffi&ulties tat are still
pertaining.
"e&nology is already in te ands of uman) proper implementation of it
is needed. "e purpose of tis study is to de'elop a system tat %ill repla&e te
&urrent %e(&ast 'ie%ing on 9M9 Computer College and to pro'e tat using tis
