Aplicaciones de Software Educativo: Desarrollo de un prototipo software de aplicación web para la presentación, seguimiento y cierre de proyectos de investigación.

Abstract

The objective of this Project is to implement a web application prototype for the presentation, monitoring and closing of research projects at the Instituto Tecnológico Universitario Rumiñahui (ISTER). The first chapter, after defining the objectives and scope of the project, talks about the methodology that has been used for the development of the different phases of the project. Consequently, each of the technologies, tools and architecture that have been used for the implementation of the application is briefly described. The second chapter describes the current situation of ISTER regarding the management of research projects in its department; allowing to identify the problems that the Institution has in front of said management and logistics. In this way, it has been possible to specify the type of application to be developed for the prototype, as well as the requirements that it must satisfy in order to correct said problems. After the defined requirements, different diagrams have been made to delimit the logic of the prototype, as well as the components that comprise its graphical interface. Subsequently, the third chapter focus on the testing stage which has the objective of validating if the requirements established for the application have been covered, once compliance with these has been determined, the development of the prototype is considered finished. Finally, in the fourth chapter, the conclusions and recommendations obtained from the entire development process of this Project are detailed.
