Once the Moodle Attendance Activity
is set up, click on the activity in the
moodle
course page and navigate to
the Status
Set tab.
This screen allows you see
the Acronym, Description and
Points automatically
applied to the attendance activity. The
criteria fields populated are available to
update by clicking on the textboxes
available.
- If students are updating their own
attendance, and you would like to restrict the
timeframe this is open to students, populate
the Available for students
(minutes) blank textbox
fields. This will restrict access to students
by a number of minutes from the start of the
session. If it is left blank, students will be
free to update attendance at any time.
- The Automatically set
when not marked option is
also available to allow users to select one
status to be automatically reflected for all
students who have not updated their
attendances. For example, mark
as Absent if they have
not updated their attendance record.
Status' can be hidden or deleted by
selecting
the eye or X icon
on the right on the relevant status
line.
- If you wish to add an additional
status, populate the blank fields and click on
the Add button.
- Once complete, click on
the Update button on
the base of the screen.
