Willowbrook School
Chapter 8
Willowbrook School is a small private school that has retained your services as a systems
analyst to assist in the development of a new information system for the school?s
administrative needs.
Background
After presenting the system requirements document to Willowbrook, the staff has
approved your recommendations for a new computer system. Your next step is to begin
the design phase of the SDLC and design a user interface including screens and forms for
inputs, and reports for outputs. To design the user interface for Willowbrook, you should
review the documentation you prepared during the systems analysis phase.
Tasks
1. Create a switchboard design with control buttons that lead to system components
of your choosing. Components may include students, staff, classrooms, after-care,
payments and any other area you think should be in a working system of your
own design.
2. Prepare storyboards that show lower-level menus including data entry screens.
Allow a user to add, update, or delete records in each area. Suggest contextsensitive and specific help and feedback for the proposed screens.
3. Design a source document that parents would use to register their children for
classes.
4. Suggest at least six types of data validation rules for data entry screens, explain
how Willowbrook should use each rule.
