No not at all. The idea is absurd. Even entertaining that it could be a solution is suspect. If students leave class too much they are marked as absent. It works many other places in the world, without having to do some creepy surveillance of kids bodily functions.
- wisty 3y agoAre they marked absemt on some kind of app?
- mitthrowaway2 3y agoWe used to use a piece of paper called an "attendance sheet", with ruled lines on it. You can think of it as an excel-like app, with touchscreen stylus functionality and good battery life.
- hn_acker 3y agoNot a teacher, but yes. The very same app that teachers use for grading, is my guess. The teacher does the attendance tracking. The app just records what the teacher puts into it. The teacher is free to take notes of when people leave and enter. If most of the class time has the students seated then a student walking around likely is very eyecatching. (What do blind teachers do? Roll call + the honor system is my first guess. Maybe handing out bathroom passes manually would be a viable Plan B.)
