INTRODUCTION
Background to the Study: Information are resources that, when used, would leads to knowledge. Like any resource, it must be discovered, assessed and produced to become knowledge. The need and usage of information is increasing rapidly due to the high demand for social and dynamic developments in technology and science in the advent of the 20th & 21st century (Aboyade & Ogunsola, 2005). It is well known that the key to successful task performance is efficient and effective information gathering and processing (Dudek, 1991). Nowadays, information is everywhere and anywhere, as the digital age is rapidly taking over the world, information is now at everyone’s fingertip. People can access to any information once they are linked up to the WWW (word wide web). Therefore, methods of information dissemination have drastically evolved throughout the years, and the medium for information has evolved from traditional (old-fashion) to modern via digital resources. (Rosmani, Mutalib, & Sarif, 2020).
Generally, phones were innovated for calling purpose but now a days we use it more for social activity such as WhatsApp, Facebook, hike etc. So, technology comes forward to us and it is our duty to use it for our important purpose. Following these thought we developed this system. The management of accurate and up-to-date information regarding a student’s academic career is difficult and time-consuming task for the schools. Now-a-days the information to parents regarding their ward is provided through post cards, SMS or Email, but these techniques too are very much hectic time inefficient and lengthy. (Jadhav S. L., Mhade, Gosavi, & Jagushte, 2016).
In the past, we primarily relied on local and national broadcasts to pick up public service announcements. A more holistic distribution approach that includes not only earned, but also paid, owned, and shared tactics across many platforms is a better method to reach and motivate the intended audience these days. (Apata & Ogunrewo, 2010). Effective distribution is characterized as involving the audience in a process, whether it is one of enhanced awareness, comprehension, commitment, or action. We all have a tendency to immediately select up and run with the most apparent channels of distribution, such as newsletters, websites, and direct mail. This is because they are tangible outputs that can be easily demonstrated as reliable distribution methods. However, it will be necessary to investigate and assess which ways are the most successful and appropriate for addressing the needs of your users. (Harmsworth & Turpin, 2000).
With the advent of ICT, many successful attempts to replace the old means of notice board dissemination with more modern methods have been developed. As a result, an Android application was created for college notification on college-related announcements. E-Announcement Boards, Mobile Announcement Apps, and Online Notice Boards are all technologies that may be utilized on any computer system that is linked to the internet, whether it is through a wired or wireless network (Karanam, Matasugur, Sandhya, & Swathi, 2019). It has made information distribution more simple, convenient, and effective simply by being online, reducing the time and effort required by the prior system to convey a message to students and instructors.
Statement of Problem
The traditional method of generating and sharing notification in the institution is always time and resource consuming. The use of word of mouth is always falls to the risk of having the information altered by those sent to pass it out and it may not reach the receiver on time before the information is due. The use of notice board is restricted in distance and may not be read before the information becomes overdue. The solution to these problems is to design and implement an application through which students get notifications on their tabs, anytime regarding urgent and important information, activities on various events related their institution.
