[ARCHIVED] Roll Call Attendance

[zerella]

I use Roll Call Attendance in my Gradebook on Canvas. Is it possible for students to see what days they have been marked present or absent? As far as I can tell, students can only see their overall attendance score, not their marks for individual class meetings.

Hi  @zerella  Welcome to the Canvas Community. Good question!  And yes, they definitely can see this, but it's not in the most obvious place.  After going to Grades they have to click directly on the Roll Call Attendance link, which (frankly) is not the most obvious thing to do necessarily for them.  There are good screen captures showing exactly what the student sees here: How do I view my Roll Call Attendance report as a student?  

Hope this helps, Michael!

Thank you!  I suppose that I cannot see it when I use "Student View" because roll call attendance doesn't include the test student. That is, when using Student View, if I click on Grades and then Roll Call Attendance, I get a blank report ("No Preview Available"). But presumably students will see an actual report.

Thanks again,
