Your Task

You will develop a Student Management System that incorporates concepts from Weeks 1-4. The system will allow users to add students, display their information, update student details, and delete student records like grades.The project will incorporate various Python programming concepts.

You are allowed and encouraged to use ChatGPT for assistance but must complete the coding independently. Document your interactions with ChatGPT and explain how its suggestions helped or influenced your solution.

Assessment Description

This assessment focuses on the development of a Student Management System.In the modern educational landscape, managing student information efficiently is critical for educational institutions. With the increasing complexity of student data, such as performance tracking, automated systems are essential. This project introduces a Student Management System designed to apply fundamental programming concepts in Python to real-world scenarios. Students will integrate control flow, conditional statements, lists, and loops to create an interactive system that mimics real-world student ticket management.

By leveraging Python`s data structures and logic control mechanisms, this assessment encourages students to think critically and build a functional system that not only categorises students but also manages real-time updates.

Your task is to create a student management system that covers the following requirements:

· Control Flow

  • Implement a menu system that allows users to select from different options (e.g., add student, remove student, view students, exit).
  • ChatGPT Interaction: Describe your menu implementation and control flow logic to ChatGPT and ask for a preliminary algorithm based on which you can create your pseudocode and flowchart. Document this interaction.

· Conditional Statements

  • Add functionality to categorise students based on their grades (e.g., `F`, `P, `C`, `D`, `HD`) and display appropriate messages.
  • ChatGPT Interaction: Discuss your logic for categorising grades with ChatGPT and ask for optimisation suggestions. Document this interaction.

· Lists

  • Use lists, tuples, and/or sets to store student names and their corresponding grades. Utilise methods to add new students, remove students, and display the list of students.
  • ChatGPT Interaction: Share your lists, tuples, and/or sets methods with ChatGPT and ask for manipulation techniques. Document this interaction.

· Loops

  • Use loops to handle repeated tasks, such as displaying the menu until the user chooses to exit and iterating through the list of students to display their information.
  • ChatGPT Interaction: Discuss your loop implementation to ChatGPT and ask for feedback on improving efficiency and handling potential issues. Document this interaction.

NOTE:

You are encouraged to use ChatGPT and other generative AI tools to assist with specific tasks such as refining logic, providing guidance on conditional statements, and offering suggestions for looping logic. However, the use of ChatGPT or any generative AI for direct code generation is strictly prohibited. This assessment is designed to evaluate your programming skills, and all coding must be completed independently. Any attempt to use AI-generated code will be considered a violation of the assessment guidelines and will result in academic penalties.

Assessment Instructions

  1. Develop a pseudocode and flow chart that demonstrates the design process for the program. Use ChatGPT to create an algorithm for you, which you can use as a foundation to create your corresponding pseudocode and flowchart.
  2. The program must have user interactivity and choices so that users can use the program for as long as they want.
  3. The program should include appropriate comments, be clearly organised, code must be easy to read and use appropriate variable names.
  4. Include a transcript of all your interactions with ChatGPT. Ensure the transcript highlights the questions asked, the feedback received, and how you implemented this feedback. Document this in a Word file.
  5. You are only allowed to submit 2 files. 1 must be your Python code file in `. PY` format, and other file must be either MS Word or PDF file format, where you will post your ChatGPT interaction screenshots.
  6. Submit your files via myKBS submission platform by the due date.
    1. Please refer to the assessment marking guide to assist you in completing all the assessment criteria.
