When you're teaching in a Sonday System digital product, all the students in the class are listed below the Slide Controller and the Display Methods. You can record attendance during class and then go back and view student attendance records later.
To record student attendance:
-
Each student's status defaults to Present; simply click the word Present to toggle a student’s status to Absent for the current session.
- Click the word Absent to change the status back to Present, if needed.
To view student attendance history:
- For all attendance information on a particular student: Navigate to the Student Detail page and look in the Recent Sessions section. If the student was present, no specific indicator is provided except for the time and date (in Central time) that the teacher ended the session. If the student was not present, the time and date the session was taught still displays, but the student is specifically marked as Absent.
-
For class-level attendance information for a particular session: Navigate to the Class Detail page and click the binoculars in the Session History section. Each student in the class is listed, and those who were not present are labeled Absent.
Note
Administrators can view additional attendance data in the Classes report.
