Blackboard Attendance

About the Tool

For each class meeting, you can mark whether a student is present, late, absent, or excused. Use a laptop or go mobile with a smartphone or tablet to mark attendance while you stand in front of your class. You have access to a compact view of attendance that displays one meeting at a time.

The attendance records for each student appear in a single column next to other grades in a Blackboard course.
