Moodle: Activities & Resources: Add Attendance

The Attendance activity is designed for teachers to be able take attendance during class, and for students to be able to view their own attendance record.

Note: If a student is removed/dropped from a course (unenrolled), and added back, their attendance record will not be retained unless the instructor regularly saves the report to a secure location.

3. Select Attendance under the activities list of adding a new activity or resource. Then select Add

4. Type in a Name for this attendance, then personalize the attendance in the Attendance Settings. When finished, click Save and Return to Course at the bottom.

5. The Attendance will then appear in your selected topic section.
