Overview of Attendance Verification

Overview:

  • Attendance is due twice a semester for college credit courses and it's up to you to report this in your Faculty Center by the due date via the MyDaytonaState portal.
  • The due dates for attendance verification are located on the academic calendars.  Visit www.daytonastate.edu and select the academic calendar to see the due dates. 
  • Your department chair may send you a reminder to input attendance verification.

  • The last date of attendance is not required for students recorded as "Not Present" in "Roster 1"
  • The last date of attendance is required for students recorded as "Not Present" in "Roster 2"
  • The Last date of attendance must be correctly calculated by the Faculty Member.

  • For Roster 2, every student who is reported as "Not Present' will be un-enrolled from your course. 

How to Calculate "The Last Date of Attendance"

Face To Face Course

Online and Hybrid Course
The last date that you counted your student as physically present in your course. The last date that your student was active in the course. This can be calculated by checking course progress or course activities such as a discussion.

Calculating "The Last Date of Attendance" is very important!  Make sure that you take your time and really think of the last time the student was active in your course.  Every student has emergencies so it's up to you to define when a student is considered "Not Present" and when was the last day that they attended.
