Abstract
The task of taking class attendance using the conventional paper-based method can be a challenge with increased number of students’ enrolment for a course. The method is time consuming, prone to errors and unfairness in the process. An NFC-based attendance and course verification system is presented in this study. The system reads student’s data from the school ID card when brought in close proximity with an NFC module and sends the data to a web application where the attendance is taken and course(s) is verified as applicable. The technique is simple, cost effective and saves time. The developed system takes less than 3seconds to take a student’s attendance while compared with the manual paper-based method which took an average of 17seconds
