Running a session and taking attendance

Attendance is recorded against a session — a live class meeting for one class and subject.

Start a session

1. Open Sessions from the sidebar.
2. In "Start a new session" choose a Class, then a Subject, and optionally a Room.
3. Click "Start". The session goes live straight away and opens the kiosk.

Teachers can only start sessions for subjects they teach; owners can start any.

Mark attendance by hand

1. On the Sessions list, find the live session and click "Take attendance".
2. For each student, tap Present, Late, Absent or Excused. Each tap saves instantly.
3. Use "Mark all present" or "Mark all absent" to set everyone at once, then adjust individuals.

End a session

End a session from its kiosk using "End Session". Ended sessions stop accepting check-ins and their duration is recorded (used for statistics and timesheets).
