Recording Attendance: Students with the same name?
There are two students named John Glover in the 10th Grade>Since the name drop down only shows first and last name there is no other way to tell who is who. Jennifer understands that she can distinguish them by selecting the courses, but that does require that they pull the student's class schedule prior to recording attendance. Inputting the time of absence and identifying the student is, ideally, the easiest way from an administrators perspective.
That is a very good point! It would be great if we could choose what amount of student info we want shown in the drop down menu when searching for a student. Such as the option to include middle name, DOB, or User id #, so that we could differentiate between students who have the same names and DOB's.Thank you.
