Design of Student Attendance Information System with Fingerprints

Abstract

Student attendance is one of the administrative activities in each semester and the lecturer records the attendance of students to determine whether students can take midterm or final semester examinations. The aim of this study is to design a model of student attendance information system with fingerprints for exam needs. The structured approach method is used to develop this model. Context diagram and data flow diagram used to describe the system. The result of the study is a design of student attendance information system with fingerprints. The attendance records of students that have not been automated are prone to errors in calculating the number of student attendance. Therefore, designing this information system can help the lecturer by storing student attendance data using fingerprints. Attendance data will be automatically saved to the server.
