Re: Logging attendance

In the 2014 season we used a timeclock software that was an opensource program. A laser barcode scanner was connected, so that when the students would come in they would scan their barcode that would be located on the wall, which would clock them in and the the same when they leave to clock out.

For this upcoming season we are switching the timeclock software so that we can have more control over functionality and tracking of the hours. Additionally we are replacing the barcode scanner with a RFID reader so we just have to bring our id's with us.

It may not be as simple as the good old pen and paper but we seem to find it interesting since its something different
