CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION An Attendance Monitoring and Notification System is a software solution for monitoring the attendance of the students. Academics in the United States are to introduce a monitoring system to check when students attend or miss class. Sensors will detect student’s identification card‚ when they enter the lecture theatres. Warton classes for example‚ makes use of software that automatically determined if the student didn’t attend their classes and this will be reflected

Should college students be required to attend class through mandatory attendance policies? Should professors deduct points for students who miss more than a given number of absences? This can be a heated debate between students and instructors‚ and between instructors with different opinions as well. Here are some arguments on both side. Arguments in Favor of Mandatory Attendance Policies One of the main arguments in favor of requiring attendance is that good attendance is needed to develop a

Chapter 1 RESEARCH DESIGN INTRODUCTION Rationale of the Study Maintaining the attendance record is an important factor in people management. In the academic institute‚ taking the attendance of teachers on daily basis and maintaining it for a long time adds to the difficulty of this task as well as a waste of a lot of time. In today’s rapid technological advancements‚ traditional procedures in checking‚ recording and computation of data becomes more and more obsolete. Today manual operations are

Radio frequency identification (RFID) According to Violino (2005)‚ radio frequency identification (RFID) is a system that able to transmit the identity of a product or person through accessing the form of a unique serial number wirelessly by using radio waves. In addition‚ radio frequency identification (RFID) technology has to work together with RFID tag and RFID reader to complete the data collection process‚ RFID tag consists of microchips that able to store as much as two kilobytes of data which

motivation for daily attendance at school during those first few weeks.” Unfortunately‚ after a few weeks some students‚ particularly those who don’t perform well in school‚ become careless about regular attendance. Missing a few classes seems inconsequential to them. It is important for a student to have regular school attendance‚ because it is difficult for young people to learn if they’re not in class. In addition‚ most of the lessons are presented to students based upon or related to those

These devices have been used for tracking the past‚ but they have other capabilities like storing information and analyzing variables. RFID tags have been around for many years; however‚ not until recently has the thought of applying these devices to modern living come to play.
