We know from experience that spreadsheets and paper recording has not been effective unless we task someone with it every meeting. This usually deteriorates over time because the kids are not interested in picking up this responsibility.
  • Do you use a paper or electronic time clock?
  • Do you use a spreadsheet or Google document?
  • Do you use a web service?
  • Do you use a mobile app?
  • Do you use the school's attendance system?
  • Do you use something else?
We use a computer that has an RFID reader attached to an arduino connected to it. When students enter or leave (the computer is near the door), each student presents a card to the reader and it clocks them in or out. Alternatively, the computer screen has a local website that is always up that they can click on their picture to clock them in or out as well if they forgot their card
