| th1a | Moving the buttons further apart sounds fine. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| th1a | We could do that in general. | 00:00 |
| replaceafill | yeah | 00:01 |
| th1a | OK mid year additions for attendance. | 00:01 |
| replaceafill | that's a tricky one | 00:01 |
| th1a | If the teacher does it right, it'll just show some spurious blanks I'd think. | 00:02 |
| th1a | But it is already calculating based on explicit marks. | 00:02 |
| th1a | Right? | 00:02 |
| replaceafill | yes | 00:02 |
| replaceafill | we do have dates everywhere | 00:03 |
| replaceafill | i mean for that report | 00:03 |
| th1a | You can just make it check to see when the student enrolled and unenrolled (if at all) | 00:04 |
| th1a | Right? | 00:04 |
| replaceafill | yeah | 00:05 |
| th1a | Well, realistically, we should do this right on the regular journal as well though, and just blank out days when the student is not enrolled. | 00:06 |
| th1a | Rather than do it at the report step. | 00:06 |
| th1a | Make them inactive cells. | 00:06 |
| th1a | That's a bit more of a job. | 00:07 |
| replaceafill | yes | 00:07 |
| th1a | At this point, the calculation is based on explicit marks, so the calculation would be correct, but the days before (or after) the student was enrolled would be counted as blank entries, which might make it look like the teacher had not been taking attendance. We will make the attendance register smarter about this – making the cells inactive for days the student was not enrolled. This is more complicated than the rest of this list however, so m | 00:08 |
| th1a | ight take longer. | 00:08 |
| th1a | OK? | 00:10 |
| replaceafill | ok | 00:10 |
| th1a | Ah, my window manager just crapped out. | 00:11 |
| th1a | It doesn't get along with LibreOffice, I think. | 00:11 |
| th1a | I guess all the windows I need are on top. | 00:12 |
| th1a | Graduated students stay in the system, with their contact details. You can make a separate group to help track them in future years. | 00:12 |
| replaceafill | +1 | 00:12 |
| th1a | I think we may have to add a teacher attendance score system. | 00:12 |
| replaceafill | it is there | 00:13 |
| replaceafill | i created two | 00:13 |
| replaceafill | one for students and one for teachers | 00:13 |
| th1a | OK, Should I ask for abbreviations? | 00:13 |
| replaceafill | yeah | 00:13 |
| replaceafill | i guess absent-authorized should not be counted, right? | 00:15 |
| th1a | I'll ask. | 00:15 |
| replaceafill | ok | 00:15 |
| th1a | OK. Can you work out how you would want these to be abbreviated for easy entry? Ideally one or two letter codes would be best. Absent-authorized still counts as absent, correct? And Late is different than absent? | 00:16 |
| replaceafill | we have Late in the current scoresystem | 00:16 |
| replaceafill | it's not counted | 00:16 |
| th1a | OK. | 00:16 |
| th1a | Part-time teachers: We have a timetabling system to keep track of what is supposed to happen on different days in the school, so presumably the way to do this would be to set up timetables and the tie the teacher attendance into that. That would require some work. | 00:18 |
| replaceafill | and then tie | 00:19 |
| th1a | OK? | 00:19 |
| replaceafill | ok | 00:19 |
| th1a | Date of birth thoughts? | 00:19 |
| th1a | Just use 1/1? | 00:19 |
| replaceafill | yeah | 00:20 |
| replaceafill | if there are a lot of students in that condition they could create a demo field | 00:21 |
| th1a | Finally: We should be able to get the small issues above done next week, with excluding unenrolled days from the attendance and possibly managing part-time teachers taking longer and perhaps being deferred for a while. | 00:23 |
| th1a | OK? | 00:24 |
| th1a | Or perhaps more than a week? | 00:25 |
| replaceafill | i'd say more than a week | 00:25 |
| replaceafill | i was just checking the calendar | 00:25 |
| th1a | OK. | 00:25 |
| th1a | Two weeks. | 00:26 |
| replaceafill | yes | 00:26 |
| th1a | Under promise. ;-) | 00:27 |
| th1a | OK, I have to reboot and then I'll send this. | 00:27 |
| replaceafill | ok | 00:27 |
