It is flexibil, but cumbersome. -- Please use in the classroom do not use the computer or use in the correction after taking the automatic and semi-automatic mode *** Block [#gc15f0a6] &ref(Block_eng.png); - Attendance: Link to registration sessions list - Report: Link to the presence information of students - Classifications: Links to configuration page of the classification of students *** Glossary [#t319f189] - ''Session'': Lesson to be performed at a certain time. - ''Class'': Classification of students at a session. *** Settings [#pc627ce5] &ref(Menutab_eng.png); **** Attendance [#ud0a8aca] - This menu displays a table of course attendance.

Also, in automatic mode, update the attendance information from the log of Moodle. - [Select All], [Clear All] and ''Delete Select'' button -- You can remove the session that is selected in the check box. - Operation button &ref(autoattend_button.png); -- Attendance icon: View the attendance information for each student, and edit it if necessary. (Red circle: session does not start. Square of orange: in session. Green circle: session was finished.) -- Edit icon: Edit session information. -- Check box: Check the session you want to delete. **** Add [#fe598880] - Add one or multi sessions. -- Late Time: Students who delay time greater than or equal to this will be "late" with automatic or semi-automatic mode. -- keyword: Please see below ''Keyword'' section. -- Allowed IPs: Please see below ''Allowed IPs'' section. -- Deny same IP: Ignore the roll call from the IP address that attendance has been taken already. This is for prevention of answer a roll call for friend. **** Report [#hf6b6cfa] - Show the attendance report of all students. Each period, each class is also available. **** Classifications [#q3e44bd0] - Classify students. (grouping) -- There are exceptional classes, ''No Class'' and ''Exclusion''. --- ''No Class'': This is a default student class. If you do not perform the classification, there is no problem that all students are in this class. Students of ''no class'' can belong only to the session for ''All students''. --- ''Exclusion'': Students of ''exclusion'' never belong to any class and attendance is not displayed. -- ''Unknown Class'': Class to which student belong has been removed, belonging class of student will be ''Unknown Class''. **** Class Settings [#ya084cb2] - When performing classification in class, add the name of the class, edit, and delete. - ''All students'' is a default session class.

When you check the "Random Key" checkbox, the small letter of five characters is generated automatically. In the case of automatic and a manual mode, this is disregarded. *** Allowed IPs [#xe19d81b] The range of the IP addresses of the terminal which permits attendance are specified. Basically format is list of "IP address/submetmask" that divided with the blank or the comma. But you can use the following forms, too.~ - The prefix length notation is also possible instead of a subnetmask. -- 202.26.155.0/16 => 202.26.0.0/255.255.0.0 - When a part of IP address is omitted, it is regarded as 0. -- 202.26./255.255.255.0 => 202.26.0.0/255.255.255.0 - When a parts of subnetmask is omitted, it is regarded as 0. -- 202.26.100.2/255.255. => 202.26.0.0/255.255.0.0 -- 202.26./255.255.255. => 202.26.0.0/255.255.255.0 - When all subnet masks are omitted, the portion omitted by the IP address is 0. -- 202. => 202.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 - Example of setting -- 92.168.100. 202.26.144.0/255.255.255. 202.26.148.122 *** autoattendmod module [#f18a7fef] - It works only in the block, but if you add a module, the following functions are added. ++ Attendance is added to the grade. ++ Cron works. ++ You can be used as a link attendance entry in semi-automatic mode. *** Screen Shots [#zf858349] &ref(/autoattend/Attendance_eng.png,,30%); &ref(Attendance2_eng.png,30%); &ref(Attendance3_eng.png,30%); &ref(report_eng.png,20%); &ref(/autoattend/Attendance_eng.png,,30%); &ref(/autoattend/Attendance2_eng.png,,30%); &ref(/autoattend/Attendance3_eng.png,,30%); &ref(/autoattend/report_eng.png,,20%);
