All-In-One Attendance Management for Schools and Institutions - 2022
As a college student, I have first handedly observed the hassle that peers and
professors go through when taking attendance at organizational events and class meetings. Even in virtual
classrooms, taking attendance is a required procedure that takes at least 10 minutes at the beginning of every class.
Schools and institutions track student attendance to better understand absenteeism and punctuality; however, there are many drawbacks of a traditional, manual attendance system:
- Time-consuming
- Loads of paperwork
- Reduces productivity and lecture time
- Risk of human error
- Student manipulation
Let’s face it, manually tracking attendance has always been a complicated and cumbersome task. Imagine if there was a quicker way to sign in without having to wait in lines or pass the sign-in sheet around a class of 50+ students until it finally gets to you.
Cloud-In-Hand® Stratus-io: Remote Check-In is the solution selected by schools to record student attendance. Whether you have 30 students or 300, manually keeping and consolidating paper records is a significant undertaking. With stratus-io, all the work is done for you, with no documentation required. Check-ins for students and visitors are logged from any device and saved in an easily searchable database. You can pull data by student, roster, or date for hassle-free grade reconciliation, administrative reports, and visitor management.
Key Features of Stratus-io for Administrators
Track attendance in real-time as students and visitors walk through the door. A quick swipe automatically logs entry and exit information as students and visitors move around the school. Automatic syncing means records are updated continually, so you always know who’s in class and who’s on campus. With that information at hand, you can enhance security systems, keep administrators and parents up-to-date, and keep students safe.
Roster Creation
Students use their existing student ID cards as a ready-made school attendance system. RFID badges are the perfect tracking tool and it’s simple to sync your current database with the app. Create mobile check-in kiosks to easily take classroom attendance or sign visitors in as they arrive. Even if you don’t currently have a smart card, it’s both simple and cost-effective to turn plastic IDs into RRFID-enabled cards for a quick, hassle-free attendance management for schools solution.
