Steps

These are the steps that must be followed to record student attendance.

How to Record Attendance in Faculty Self-Service

Note:  Attendance can only be recorded for sections with individual meeting dates/times, therefore attendance cannot be recorded for online classes.

 

1. Click on the Attendance tab

 

2. Verify the date shown is the date you would like to record attendance for – the most recent date is selected by default, but you can use the Select Date drop-down to select a previous date.

3. Attendance cannot be entered for a future date, so you will see the message below if the first meeting date for the class has not yet occurred.

The Attendance module allows you to update all students at once or update students individually.

 

How to Update All Students at Once

1. Select the Update All drop-down box and choose the desired update option.

 

How to Update Students Individually

1. Select the Select Attendance drop-down next to the student(s) you would like to update and choose the desired attendance option.

 

How to Enter Attendance Comments

1. Click on the comment icon next to the Select Attendance drop-down.

Note: Students will not see comments entered by the faculty member, but they will see the total number of days they were marked Present, Absent, Excused and/or Late.
