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.

When I upgraded my system to the latest Moodle version this module stopped its work and is giving me now Internal Server Error!
Do you have any idea for solving that?
Regards,
there's not enough information in that error for us to help, I'd suggest you try asking for help in the moodle.org community forums and make sure you have updated your code correctly.

Was getting the: String [export,mod_quiz] is deprecated" error previously but then read that you updated your github to fix this. So got that version and now getting the above error.
Moodle 2.8.5+
I've also updated the version here in the plugins db so you could try updating again using the version I've just uploaded.
Question: Do you plan to implement exporting of single student reports?
Loving the plugin, teachers find it very easy to keep track of students.
I do have one question about the visibility of groups in my scenario:
A teacher is in multiple groups.
There are multiple attendance module instances with access restriction limiting them by group.
Each individual instance only has sessions setup for a single group at a time.
students are only ever in a single group.
When a teacher enters and individual instance of the attendance module the filtering defaults to common if they are part of multiple groups and the list contains every group they are a part of.
I'm wondering if it's possible to have this list only contain the groups that are involved in the instances sessions rather than every group a facilitator is a part of.
Slightly unrelated but, is there any setup that can have teachers only able to view the sessions of groups they are members of?
Thanks for your time
great to hear you find the plugin useful - Kudos goes to Artem for the work he did creating the plugin.
Feature improvement is not something I am able to spend much time on as a volunteer, however many other people have contributed significant patches with various improvements. If you have someone internally that is able to help add the improvements you require I'm happy to review those changes for inclusion in the core version. Alternatively you could try contracting a Moodle Partner to help make the changes for you (I work for the Moodle Partner Catalyst IT)
