By tracking student attendance, instructors have an accurate count of who is attending and on which days. This can help instructors know a few things:

• Attendance might give an insight into which students need some support.
• Tracking attendance allows an instructor to easily discover the “last date of attendance” for reporting purposes.
• By keeping careful track of attendance, instructors can confidently enforce an attendance policy.
