In this article, we'll go over how to take attendance and the added value it provides

We know that you take attendance daily in your student information system, but there is value to also taking it in ChalkTalk. Why take attendance twice?

Taking attendance on ChalkTalk:

  • Is the metric that your school and district administrators are tracking

  • It triggers our Review Classes Algorithm

  • Makes it easy to hold students accountable

  • Allows you to navigate to the next lesson easily

This is why we wanted to make it as simple as it can be on ChalkTalk. With one click you can mark all students or a single student as “Present”. Here's a screenshot of where to find that in the lesson:

  1. Select "Record Attendance"

  2. On the pop-up screen, you can select "Present" or "Absent" at the top to mark all your students as present or absent.

  3. Alternatively, select the circle next to each student's name to mark attendance individually.

We recommend you mark all students as present and then mark the absent students individually


Contact us:

  1. Through the in-app Chat on the ChalkTalk platform

  2. Schedule a meeting using this calendar
