Abstract:
In the last decade we have witnessed an enormous increase in the end user acceptance of mobile communications. The appearance of mobile platforms based on the open source software has rapidly increased the interest into mobile applications development. Development of software should be more real, user friendly, compatible with system and cost effective. The use of software by user must be simple and should not require much training to use software. Currently student attendance is marked verbally by the teacher who calls out roll numbers or names of the students, that is timeconsuming tedious work. So we have used the android platform for our project which is open source, scales to every device and it offers a unified approach to application development. We had an innate interest in developing class room applications from the start of our degree. This is an attempt to make an application that will be beneficial to both teachers and students. Our application facilitates this by letting the students mark their own attendance using an Android application. The teacher will then only verify them and then voila attendance is marked. Teachers can also view their student’s attendance record on daily basis. They can view their courses and see the attendance from that course. This application is designed to be easy to use by both teachers and students.
