Hi everyone
I’m trying to create an Attendance app for the after school activity that I run. I have so far created a table in Glide labeled students - with their names, email addresses, and the different classes they’re taking.
I also have a table named ‘Classes’ where I list all of the classes we offer + their day and the time, as well as a column with a Relation to have all students who are enrolled in the class listed there.
Next, I have a table called Attendance with columns for ‘date’, ‘class’, ‘student’ and a boolean ‘present?’ yes/no.
However, I’m stuck. If a teacher would open the app, they can select the class they teach from a list. Then, all students in that class are listed. This is how far I got.
What I want now is for all the students to be marked as present by default (I tried using a checkbox but I cannot get this to work . Then, preferably with just one click of a button, the teacher could tap ‘confirm attendance’ or something and it would track all students that are marked/checked as present to present and the unchecked ones as absent.
I worry my question is quite complicated/convoluted/complex, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I’ve been reading through some other help posts and was honestly pleasantly surprised by how helpful and non-condescending the replies were.
Thanks for reading and any possible help you can give me!
