Attendance quick guide
From MoodleDocs
What is Attendance?
- The Attendance activity allows teachers to maintain an online record of attendance, either as well as or instead of a paper-based register. There may be more than one instance of Attendance in a course, recording different events or classes.
- Teachers can mark students Present, Late, Absent or Excused and can also allow students to record their own attendance.
- For more information, see the Attendance documentation
How is it set up?
- With the editing turned on in a course, add Attendance from the activity chooser.
- Give it a name and if needed a description and save.
- On the next screen you will see further options:
- Sessions allows you to see sessions you have made
- Add allows you to add one or more sessions AND let students record their own attendance.
- Report displays the register/attendance report.
- Export allows you to download the report.
- Settings allows you to change or add to the default attendance marks, descriptions and grades.
- Temporary users - allows you to add a student just for that one instance.
