There is a trend in Malaysia nowadays that relates database with software call Microsoft Access. Almost all organization in Malaysia using it because of it functions can faciliate database management. But it is not practically used in all part of the world.
In Universiti Teknologi Malaysia mostly using Microsoft Access as the software to keep data about their workers, students or things but there also some units that can be called OUTDATED!!.For example log book still be used in keeping data of the athletes to tracked workout that they have done.
WHY IS THIS HAPPENED!!
1) Team Manager from each games did not being trained in using Database software like Microsoft Access Management
2) Mentality of the UTM athletes that only thing their responsibility of being athletes is only play and not to improved the whole team for example to provide their profile to team manager.
3) Software being used in computer that provided in gymnasium still using microsoft excel and the instruction to fill in the attendance not clearly stated.
4) Only attendance is being tracked, not how well athletes perform others relates on their performance.
For me database management can be effective way to tracked athletes current performance but to do this it needs planning and structured worked.All people (Students, Staff, University’s top management)should work together in building the team to be more efficient.With The name TECHNOLOGY in our universities name we should be one of the leading universities in using technology not only in engineering part but also things like database.
Actually Universiti Technology Malaysia is improved in doing this things, for example there are a change from log book to using computers for tracking attendance, but it is not fully used, for example when students stored their data in computers team manager still using books and pencils to transfer the data from computer to team data.
