Optimizing the Student Registration System: Exploring User Interface and Experience Enhancements

The investigation used a student registration system, discovering consistent comments through five core themes: design, performance, functionality, completing tasks, and ideas for enhancement. Users mentioned the visual presentation of the system made them feel old-fashioned and in need of trendy appeal. While some felt simplicity and natural ease of navigation was a boon, many experienced too basic and incomplete an interface requiring more clearer and visually attractive content to make navigating and utilizing more efficient. System performance became the most noted concern, as constant references were made to lag, slow reaction time, and the system freezing sometimes. All this hindered the efficiency of tasks and left the users frustrated. Even so, users said that once responsiveness returned to the system, using the system to navigate and complete tasks was actually seamless, which displayed the efficiency the system possessed once optimized. Users identified the utility of some features like search and filtering but identified a few improvements that could be made, such as improved error prevention, improved control responsiveness, and making the interface customizable. Proposals to improve included a complete UI overhaul, feature improvements like the ability to edit and the addition of notifications, and personalizing the interface. In general, the results show a strong requirement for balancing performance, functionality, and aesthetics to provide a more efficient and user-friendly registration process. digital platforms, contributing to improved user experiences and overall system effectiveness in library management.
