Configuring Attendance

Step One: Set Meeting Dates

Image Removed

In order to access Attendance, the Meeting Dates must be set.

• First Date - The first day the class occurs.
• Last Date - The last day the class occurs.
• Duration (Minutes) - How long the class is.
  • Note: This number is not used in any grade calculations. It is presented here as a means of tracking class length, if necessary.

Select which days of the week the course meets and click "Create Meetings". Your meetings will be saved, and Attendance will appear in the top navigation bar.

The Grading section determines how the overall attendance grade will be calculated. This calculation will appear in the Category Table in Student Details.

Note: You must click "Create Meetings" to save changes in this section. It is recommended that this section be configured at the same time as the meeting dates above.
