Background of the Study
The management of student attendance is a critical aspect of secondary school administration. Traditional attendance-taking methods, such as manual sign-ins or roll calls, are time-consuming and prone to inaccuracies, such as proxy attendance or errors in record-keeping. In Dutse Local Government Area, Jigawa State, there is an increasing need for a more efficient and accurate method of tracking student attendance. Facial recognition technology offers a solution by providing a contactless, automated way of monitoring attendance that reduces errors and ensures accuracy.
Facial recognition systems use machine learning algorithms to identify and verify individuals based on their facial features. These systems can be integrated with attendance management software to automatically register student attendance when they enter a classroom. The goal of this study is to design and implement an e-attendance monitoring system using facial recognition technology to improve attendance tracking in secondary schools in Dutse.
Statement of the Problem
Secondary schools in Dutse Local Government Area, Jigawa State, continue to rely on traditional methods of recording student attendance, which are often inefficient and prone to errors. These methods can lead to issues such as inaccurate attendance records, time wastage, and difficulties in verifying student presence. Additionally, the manual process leaves room for mismanagement and fraud, such as students marking the attendance of their peers. The implementation of a facial recognition-based e-attendance monitoring system offers a solution by automating attendance tracking in a secure and reliable manner.
