摘要

Marking attendance in the class meeting session and recording the marks of the students are the prime tasks of the subject handlers, since marking the attendance can regulate the students to attend the classes. Moreover, it verifies number of students present in the conducted classes. The purpose of recording the marks is to analyse the performance of the students in terms of curricular activities. Earlier, the tasks of marking attendance and recording the marks are handled manually by pen and paper method. This method consumes more time and adds more workload to the subject handlers and sometimes the data may prone to error. To avoid these problems, this paper presents a mobile application for student attendance and mark management system. This application is mainly designed for the faculties and other staff members of the organization who maintain attendance and marks regularly. Using this system, the subject handlers, staffs or the authorities can verify the number of students present or absent in the class meeting sessions. This application allows the users to mark attendance through mobile devices and to keep in touch with students. Furthermore, this application allows the teachers to mark and edit the attendance and also to add the marks in the system database for further retrieval. It gives a prior intimation to students as soon as their attendance goes below the specified percentage through an alert message.
