...

You'll then be taken to the Settings page.

Preferences (how Things Look)

The first tab on the page is the Preferences page.  Here, you can set how you want the attendance list sorted.  You can also control whether to show the number of absences that a student has to you while you're taking attendance.  

...

If you want to use check-in, you can choose whether to have a random PIN display to the student when they check in.  There is an option for a QR code check-in, but the University doesn't license that, so DO NOT SELECT QR CODE CHECKIN.

Attendance Statuses

The next tab allows you to control what statuses are available to assign to students.  You can remove built-in statuses with the toggles next to them.

...

If you need more than one extra status, click Add Status at the bottom.

Automatic E-mails

If you'd like the system to send an e-mail each time you mark a student absent, you can check "Send email on absence" to do so.

...

You can edit the text in the text box at the bottom.

Grading

Qwickly Attendance can automatically add an attendance grade to your Grade Center.  Click on the Grading tab to set up the options.

...

• Session Grading, which allows you to grant points for either every session attended, or grant an overall grade based on the percentage of sessions attended
• Absence Grading which allows you to give (or more likely take away) points each time a student is absent.

Session Grading

To do Session Grading, check the Session Based Grading Column box.

...

You'll then need to set the column name, and either the total points for the column or the points for each session in the boxes below the buttons.  ONLY make changes to these here in the Qwickly settings.  If you edit the Grade Center column, you can cause unpredictable  behavior.

Absence Grading

To grade based on absences, check "Absence Based Grading Column."

...

Enter a number of points per absence.  To take points away for an absence (which is probably what you want to do), enter a negative number for Points Per Absence.

Finishing Up

When you're all done, click on "Save Settings"
