In collaboration with Norwegian educational institutions, we have developed a tool for digital attendance registration for various areas of use in schools. A tool that simplifies and automates time-consuming processes and provides an overview and control over participation in relation to given attendance requirements.
We help both private schools, colleges, universities, vocational schools and community colleges with our solutions.
Our services
Teaching
First day at school
Good start
Attendance at classes
Registration of attendance for on-site or digital teaching throughout the year. Students check in and have an overview of timetables and their own attendance via the app. Employees have a full overview in real time in their own admin view.
How does it work?
NOA has integrations with FS, Canvas and TP, where we retrieve data about students, courses, course affiliation and timetables.
Students download the NOA app and check in to their classes themselves.
Student check-ins are automatically registered on the lecturer's class list as "attended" in real time, so the attendance record is always up to date.
Students get an overview of their own timetable and attendance percentage at the course—and, if applicable, group—level.
Lecturers can start teaching more quickly, avoid circulating lists and follow-up work with registrations, and always stay up to date.
Course coordinators or administrators can quickly get an overview of the students' status and access the desired reports with export options.
NOA has solutions for
Varying timetables from week to week
Division into groups with different timetables and different attendance requirements within a subject
Converting batches into individual sessions for more detailed and fairer statistics
Student to check out if you have to leave before class is over
The institution can freeze check-outs when performing an audit.
To produce reports with different filters and export to excel
Terminology adapted to the type of sector (secondary/higher education/courses)
NOA has flexibility for
Whether the student should check in for each session individually or in batches.
How many minutes the opening window for check-in should be, before and after the lecture starts, down to course and class level
To mark lectures as mandatory so that the student sees it in the app
Om det skal brukes GPS, tallkode, QR-kode eller kombinasjoner av disse for å få sjekket inn på forelesningen
And much, much more. Feel free to contact us for information, as we are constantly updating the tool.
Digital and hybrid teaching
One of the key features that makes attendance registration with NOA so simple and seamless is that our technology ensures the student must be at the campus coordinates for check-in to be possible.
We know that many people are now teaching digitally or hybrid classes, and there is a great need to be able to register attendance in such classes in a simple and secure way.
With NOA, there is flexibility. Students can either enter a numeric code or scan a QR code generated by the lecturer for each session. It is also possible to combine methods: students on campus can check in using coordinates, while those at home enter the numeric code or scan the QR code. Students can, of course, check in for multiple consecutive sessions in a course with a single click.
First day at school
Register attendance for the first study day on 1-2-3!
Students receive a text message and enter a code - and just like that, attendance is registered in the Common Student System(FS). Integration with the admissions module in FS provides a smooth and secure data flow in both directions.
Meet students in a modern way and save a lot of time by avoiding circulating paper lists and manual processing of attendance records afterward.
Attendance registration on the first day of study made easier
For many, the process of registering students on the first day of classes is still a manual task, involving either roll call or queues where students sign a list, along with considerable follow-up work for administrative staff at the institution to enter attendance data into the Common Student System (FS).
Digitizing the entire process will safeguard student privacy and avoid manual registration and post-processing of attendance data afterwards.
In practice, this means that the student receives an SMS with a unique link linking the student to the study program, where they enter a specific code that they receive from the institution at the start of their studies.
How does it work?
NOA imports a list of studies and students before the start of the studies, where each study has an attendance date and time.
At a given interval before this attendance time, NOA sends an SMS to those students who are due to attend, where the SMS contains a unique personalized link indicating which student and which study it applies to.
The link is active at the time of sending, but no actions can be performed until the attendance time has passed.
NOA generates a 4-digit code for each study program, and the institution is responsible for distributing them to those taking attendance.
The person responsible for attendance provides the code that students should use to confirm their presence, either physically on campus or digitally.
Once the code is entered, the student will be registered as present in the system.
NOA will write back data to FS if requested.
Good start
Registration of participation to
group work led by experienced student assistants.
"God start" is a new module we have developed at the request of the University of Agder. With NOA's God start, the mentor/student assistant can register the participation of the students and get an overview of how many times the group members have met during the semester for non-scheduled activities.
Courses and students are retrieved from FS
Simple and clear group management
Attendance requirement is set to the number of times (not %) during the semester
Mentor registers students' participation per session
Detailed overview of students' number of attendances, last check-in and chronological overview of the date and time they were registered
More about the mentoring scheme for first-year students at UiA
Adjusting to higher education and student life can be challenging. UIA therefore offers an academic mentorship program during the first semester to help students settle in on campus and succeed in their studies. The program’s purpose is to improve first-year students’ well-being and learning environment on campus, ensuring that all new students get the best possible start to their studies.
First-year students are therefore invited to join a “Good Start” group, consisting of 10–15 fellow students led by an experienced student mentor. These groups focus on fostering a supportive and inclusive community among students, as well as providing guidance on academic and practical matters.
The mentor records the students who attend each group meeting (which is not scheduled in the timetable), giving an overview of the number of sessions attended in relation to the attendance requirement.
