To begin, make sure you are in Campus Instruction. The first screen you will see is the Teaching Center, as shown below. In the upper-right corner, enable Classroom Navigation (you only need to do this once).
Next, click the link for the class you wish to take attendance on.
Once your class is loaded, click the Students tab at the top, then choose Positive Attendance from the menu on the left.
For each student, enter the Time In and Time Out. This time is when you are working synchronously with the students. When you click in each box, you will see a drop-list of times in 15-minute increments to choose from. You are not limited by these times - you can enter the time directly into the box as well.
TIP: When entering a time manually, it will format the time correctly for you. For example, if you enter 847, once you tab away from that field, it will change to 8:47 am
If most or all of your students have the same times to enter, we recommend using the Fill Times/Comments option (link in the upper right corner).
Enter the Time In and Time Out - the duration will calculate automatically.
optional - Enter a comment that indicates what you were working on with the students.
Click the All Students button to apply to all students in this class. Their names will appear in the box below. You can de-select any student that is not in attendance.
You can also only apply this to students who do not yet have attendance taken by clicking the Students without saved records button. Or, you can select students individually using the Select Students button
Once finished, click the Fill button to apply the times to your selected students all at once.
Once completed, click the Save button
Once saved, the times and comments are moved below the edit boxes. This is to allow you to enter additional Time In / Time Out throughout the day as appropriate. To edit any previously entered times, click the link as shown below.
