Top Time And Attendance Software in PHP

Students' attendance records of classes are primary and required data to manage a course and to take care of students, but a recording task causes extra burden and loss of lecturing time. An attendance management system using student identification card with IC chip has been proposed and implemented in several universities. Even those systems work well, there are obstacles to install them to other institutes such as an initial cost of systems and the modification costs for pre-installed systems such as an e-Learning system. This paper describes a new attendance management system on Moodle using Android devices as a reader of FeliCa(R) Common-use Format (FCF) type student identification card. The proposed system has been tested for a few courses of autumn semester in 2013 on test Moodle. Since spring semester in 2014, it is installed on campuswide Moodle system and works for one running course.
