Hi all
I was wondering if I could get any advice from you nice people.
I am going to apply to do a Masters in Information Systems Management and I am trying to come up with a topic. As I am a teacher, what I have in mind is a Management Information System for a school.
Essentially what the system would have would be:
1. Students own E-mail Accounts
2. Printer Networks
3. Shared Drive for Teachers to put notes on an Intranet
I am not sure where to start. The idea is that every Student will have a user Name and password to log into computers in the school. Then they could access their files from any computer.
I have been doing some research and what I think I have to do is:
1. set up a database for students/staff.
2. design a website for students to log onto e-mail
3. set up a mini-network with a server and 3 or 4 clients
I would have to source some software for setting up the email accounts and printer networks. I am told I can get some open source software for these. Anyone got any idea. Any help would be much appreciated...
I think I posted this in other hardware forum by mistake............tried to delete it but don't know how...........sorry :-(
