Attendance
The Attendance activity allows teachers to maintain a record of attendance, replacing or supplementing a paper-based attendance register. It is primarily used in blended-learning environments where students are required to attend classes, lectures and tutorials and allows the teacher to track and optionally provide a grade for the students attendance. The instructor can set the frequency of their classes (# of days per week & length of course) or create specific sessions.
To take attendance, the instructor clicks on the "Update Attendance" button and is presented with a list of all the students in that course, along with configurable options and comments. The default options provided are: Present, Absent, Late & Excused. Instructors can download the attendance for their course in Excel format or text format.
Sessions can also be configured to allow students to record their own attendance and a range of different reports are available.
thanks to Dan Marsden and all the contributers for developing and updating moodle.
we are using the Export to Excel quite often and do another export from Excel to pdf für securing the attendance. Will there be an export to pdf in the future?
And another problem for us is that the Excel-Export is not showing the full content of the additional field for remarks. Is there a way to collapse all excel fields without doing it in Excel.
I'm try to make grade attendance in one course, with multiple sessions (e.g. Same course every Friday with different students). Unfortunately I have to search a massive list of students every time. Is there a "group" method where I can pre-group each student into different week's attendance? thanks!
I really like the plugin, it is very useful in my organization. We offer online and in-person courses for our employees and carry out in-person appointments using your plugin. However, I would like to ask if it is possible to add a way to print the list of participants for the session, including the session description fields and other selected custom fields?
Thank you very much!
