RosarioSIS (or any open-source SIS)

Dear all,

I am interested in installing an open-source Student Information System, such as RosarioSIS, for a college in addition to their Moodle e-learning site.

Is there a possibility of porting this kind of application to Cloudron in the near future?

Thank you for your hard work!

Best wishes

Possibly stupid question, but what is a SIS ? Is this like a CRM but specialized for schools ?

At initial glance and looking at the installation instructions, you should be able to set this up using a LAMP app.

@JLX89 Thanks. I will give it a try (I'm rather noob so that's why using Cloudron to install apps on the server is a treat for me )

NB: Other SIS apps include Gibbon and OpenSIS also based on LAMP. Any of these app would be a great addition to Cloudron app store

@girish Student Information System

Had to look it up, from Wikipedia:

"A student information system (SIS), student management system, school administration software or student administration system is a management information system for education sector establishments used to manage student data. It integrates students, parents, teachers and the administration. Student information systems provide capabilities for registering students in courses; documenting grading, transcripts of academic achievement and co-curricular activities, and the results of student assessment scores; forming student schedules; tracking student attendance; generating reports and managing other student-related data needs in an educational institution. "

My Son's school uses https://www.isams.com/ . They call it a "School Management Information System (MIS) "

Update on SIS apps. I've managed to successfully install Gibbon on Cloudron's LAMP. It works fine

NB: I've also tried RosarioSIS but was not successful.

PS: The latest app I'm trying to install is OpenSIS. Should work but it requires to disable MySQL Strict Mode. Unfortunately as I'm not a PHP dev I don't know how to proceed .

@osobo out of curiosity what is making you more interested in RosarioSIS vs Gibbon? Is it that it has a moodle plugin? Also do you know if any of these have a student government module of sorts?
