- Makerere University students could miss out on national exams if they fail to attend at least 75% of their set lectures. This comes after the university commissioned a digital attendance and tracking system to monitor student attendance during lectures. Additionally, a biometric staff access system has been introduced to address staff absenteeism.

Attendance at University is a waste of time of time. These are mature adults who should be given the opportunity to plan as they wish without these kind of restrictions. only this should work for staff only but not students.
True
As a student yes, it’s irrelevant but for the lecturers who miss classes and still set content not covered or cover class material for a month in 3 weeks should be held accountable
Wow..this is such an amazing innovation!
The university should make sure a phone is a requirement under the Functional fees as part of the Technology fees because every student must own a smart gadget in this Era if Africa is to cope with the Technological revolution.....university can procure good performance smart study phones customized from Samsung at a low cost and should immediately start encouraging parents about this development
Some parents are difficult....they can only provide for a phone or tablet after the university declaring it as an official university requirement
so basically you are registering attendance of the smartphone not the student. this system has several loopholes. Phone batteries die, phones get stolen, students borrow and share phones. If your security system is relying on smartphones, then you are at the mercy of smartphones. Use an internal biometrics system such as fingerprints that are first captured at registration.
Some of Makerere’s programs offered are not fit for purpose .
Thank You Stakeholders.
During bachelor's I attended less than 40%. I spent most of the time reading and in the lab. 😒In my masters, I only attended less than 7% of the lectures. I prefer reading and experimenting. Tracking attendance is a bogus move. People should be allowed to learn outside class
Makerere university Primary School
They should instead allocate 10% or acertain minimal figure to class attendance...auniversity is not a secondary school,,,minimise exam leakages, record class lectures for those too busy to attend and let adults be....
What about students from the villages who don’t have smart phones.
We shall collect our smartphones,we give them to the class minister and he scans for us the QR CODES
Those things are not going to last a year. And students will destroy them for nothing
Kawedemu😂😂😂
Quite nice technology.

Really, this system will disturb many of us students
Some students don't have phones in class because of electricity and financial issues
Whether they bring police itself, we won't attend lectures
