I’m trying to create a monthly attendance sheet with a total average at the end. I want it to work in a way that it can output an average of the days no matter how many columns I used that month. For example: if I taught 10 days that month and one student misses on of his classes, I want it to show 90% in that month, which will be taken into account in the final year average. Can it be done?

Sure.
You have to drag and drop this template int your list of classes. Password is 12345



You will see an example like this

For this to work on your classes, you have to edit the default attendance settings (Add column > Gear icon next to 'Add attendance') and select the 'Attendance grade type' as the default grade type.

If you have added already some attendance columns, you should assign this 'Attendance grade type' in bulk with a tap on Tools (top bar) > Columns > Select your attendance columns > Edit > Grade type and assign the 'Attendance grade type'

This 'Attendance grade type' comes with the template I just prepared for you.
It basically takes a green check as 1 and a red cross and hourglass as 0. If you are using other icons or would like to assign different values (i.e. a 0.5 for the hourglass delay) you can edit it on Menu > Grade types > 'Attendance grade type' > Icons

Hi Bert,

I am trying to replicate this structure/calculation but I don't get there.
Is there an example somewhere that shows how to set this up?
Our 4th, 5th and 6th years (half the school) need to be get least 80% attendance in order to have their results count/eligable. If they do not meet 80% they will not pass to the next year. So this construction would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much Bert, it worked just the way I envisioned. This new school year will be a breeze!

Bonsoir Bert,

Je suis particulièrement intéressée par cette solution, mais j’ai quelques problèmes à reproduire tout ce que tu as expliqué.
Pourrais tu nous faire une/des capture/s des options que tu as mises en place dans ton exemple et que tu nous conseilles s’il te plaît ?

Merci de ton aide,
Claire.

Bonjour Claire,
Si vous installez le modèle ci-joint, vous verrez tous les détails dans votre carnet de notes. Faites-le glisser et déposez-le dans votre liste de classes.
Si vous êtes coincé dans une configuration particulière, faites-le moi savoir

Bonjour Bert, merci !

J’ai installé le fichier mais visiblement, quelque chose ne fonctionne pas : voir les captures.
Qu’ai-je mal fait ?
Qu’est-ce que je n’ai pas compris ?

Merci !

Vérifiez vos Options (icône d'engrenage)> Icônes de cellules vides. Supprimer la croix rouge de la liste

Merci bcp Bert, Compris !

Donc, si j’enlève La Croix rouge dans les « cellules Vides », ça comptabilise les absences dans ce tableau mais je dois remettre La Croix rouge dans les autres calculs habituels, (les moyennes de l’élève qui a été absent sur un travail par exemple) c’est bien ça ?

Ou alors, je dois trouver une autre icône pour les absences lors d’un devoir noté et rester avec cette croix rouge pour les absences si je veux profiter de ce calcul.

Merci !

Hi Bert, I don’t get any further than this. What am I doing wrong?

@DennisGoedbloed it looks like the green check does not have any value at all.
Did you import the template on this post?

Hi Bert,

When I try to import it, it says it is busy doing it... then I get a blank screen (within iDoceo). Going to other menu items and back to Classes, I don't see any new added.

I have this with other downloadable/importable things too here on the forum

I checked if I have the latest version and I didn't see any updates in the App store for iDoceo.
What am I doing wrong?

@DennisGoedbloed which iOS version are you working with?

If you drag and drop the link into iDoceo's list of classes it will work on iOS13 and iOS14

Hi Bert, iOS 13.7
I’ve tried for the past 15 minutes but I don't know how to drag and drop on iPad (ok, that is actually embarrassing to confess). Can you help me with that?

No worries. Give me a few minutes and I'll prepare a very short video.

It used to be easier but Apple is constantly adding new gestures and if you tap and hold too long on the link Safari goes crazy.

You need at least an iPad Air 2. You may be working with an iPad Air 1 which does not support drag and drop

It says iPad Air (3rd generation).
Is that iPad Air 1 or iPad Air 3?
