Background of the study
Attendance tracking is a vital administrative task in secondary schools, as it helps monitor student engagement and ensure that students are consistently present for their studies. Traditional manual attendance systems, however, are prone to errors, time-consuming, and prone to misuse, especially in large classrooms (Aliyu & Suleiman, 2023). This poses challenges for teachers and school administrators in ensuring accurate attendance records and maintaining school discipline.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology provides a promising solution for automating attendance monitoring in secondary schools. RFID tags, which are worn by students, can be detected by readers placed at entry points, automatically recording the time and presence of students without requiring manual input (Zubairu & Ibrahim, 2023). This system can significantly improve the efficiency of attendance tracking, reduce administrative workload, and enhance the accuracy and transparency of attendance records.
This study aims to design and implement a smart attendance monitoring system using RFID technology for secondary schools in Dutse Local Government Area, Jigawa State, to improve attendance tracking and reporting.
