Offline attendance

In the section Teaching

Taking attendance does not depend on the network.

In vocational training, teaching does not always happen in a wired classroom. Basement workshops, construction sites, shielded labs, remote service points, work placements: having no connection is as common as having one. An application that demands the network to take attendance ends up on paper, and the sheets get keyed in again the next day.

Parcours treats offline as a normal mode of the application, not as an outage.

Présences (mode hors-ligne)

Présences (mode hors-ligne)

Avant de partir enseigner en région éloignée, en stage ou dans un local sans réseau, l'enseignant télécharge en un geste les présences d'une plage de dates choisie. La prise de présence reste pleinement fonctionnelle hors connexion. Une réponse concrète à la réalité du terrain en formation professionnelle, où la connectivité n'est jamais garantie.

How it works

Download what you need

Before leaving, the teacher picks a date range and downloads the matching attendance. Groups, students and periods travel with them.

The same interface, connected or not

Offline, the attendance screen is the everyday one: same students, same AM and PM periods, same speed of entry. An indicator simply reports the state of the connection.

Synchronisation is automatic

Entries are kept locally and go up on their own as soon as the network returns. No procedure to remember, no step to forget.

Full granularity is kept

Competency taught, duration, activity type, teacher of record: the detail of an attendance entry is captured offline exactly as online. The pedagogical data is not degraded because the network was missing.

Nothing to key in twice

What was captured offline feeds progression, accumulated hours and reports like everything else. The paper sheet and its double entry leave the process.

Offline mode is not only for extreme cases. It removes the question a teacher asks every morning — will this work today — and that is what makes digital attendance actually get adopted.
