This feature needs to be set up for each course, which means if instructors want to sync the attendance reports with grade books from all of their classes, they have to configure it for each course individually. Once instructors launch the LTI Pro 1.3 tool, instructors should see the **Attendance Report** setting in the dropdown option on the LTI tool home page.

## Configuring the Attendance Report

Once the setting is enabled, instructors will be able to see the configuration for the tool. The following fields can be filled out by the instructor:

- **Total points**: The maximum amount of points a student can get for their attendance. This field is required.
- **Late deduction**: The amount of percentage points deducted from the attendance score after a specific amount of minutes have passed after the start of the class.
- **Percentage of Time Spent in Class**: Instructors can set multiple ranges for how many points a student will receive, based on the percentage of time they were in attendance for the class.

**Note**: The field values are initially pre-populated with example values, a value must be entered in each field or the page will generate an error when trying to save the configuration.

## Attendance Reporting configuration example

![Attendance Report Setting window with Enable Attendance Reports for meetings checked, total points at 100, late deduction 10 percent, 5 minutes and percentage of time spent in class is 80 to 100 equivalent to 100 and 50 to 79 equivalent to 75.]()

Based on the example configuration above: 

- If Student A stayed for 65% of the class and was not late to the class, Student A would receive 75% of the total points possible, which would be 75 points on the attendance report.
- If Student B stayed for 90% of the class but was late to the class, Student B would receive 90% of the total points possible, which would be 90 points on the attendance report.
- If Student C stayed for 30% of the class and was late to the class, Student C would receive 0% of the total points possible, which would be 0 points on the attendance report.
- If Student D doesn’t show up for the class at all, Student D would receive 0% of the total points possible, which would be 0 points for the attendance report.

## How to review the Attendance Gradebook report

To view the Attendance Gradebook report as an instructor: 

1. Log into D2L as an instructor and launch the LTI Pro tool.
2. Click the **Previous Meeting** tab.  
**Note**: If your meeting is not displayed, you will need to wait till the meeting populates.
3. Next to the desired meeting, click **Report** and then click the **Attendance Grade Report** tab.  
The Attendance Report will be displayed including the following fields:
  - **Name**: Name of the student.
  - **Email**: Email address of the student that is listed in D2L.
  - **Join Time**: The time the student joined the meeting.
  - **Leave Time**: The time when the student left the meeting.
  - **Duration (Minutes)**: The amount of time, in minutes, the student joined the meeting.
  - **Suggested Grade**: The suggested grade is based on the settings set when [configuring the Attendance Report](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0058371#h_01GKN5VQDAZFXJ1P0JVZX65Y2Z) for the course.
  - **Final Grade**: By default, this is the same value as the **Suggested Grade**, but can be modified at the instructor's discretion.
4. Once the grading is complete, click **Submit Grade.**
5. When prompted with a confirmation, click **Submit Grade** to save the attendance scores to the Gradebook.  
**Note**: If the Attendance Report has been modified after the report has been generated but not before it has been submitted, it will get regenerated based on the new report configuration.

Once the attendance grades have been submitted, the grades will be available in the D2L Gradebook. The Attendance Report will then be set to a read-only state within the LTI Pro tool and will be available for 180 days.

## How to view the score in D2L

### Viewing scores as an instructor

If the instructor needs to review the attendance report within the Gradebook, the report will be listed as an assignment, with the naming convention **AttendanceReport-YYYY-MM-DD**, where the date format is the scheduled start time of the meeting. For example, if the start time for the meeting was December 3, 2022, the report will be named AttendanceReport-2022-12-03. Instructors can modify the scores here after the grade has been submitted from the LTI Pro tool. To access the assignment:

1. Log into D2L as an instructor.
2. Open the desired course.
3. Navigate to **Grades**.
4. Find the attendance reports.
5. Click the student's name.  
The student's grade will be displayed, as well as their total attendance time in minutes next to the **Total Participant time**.

### Viewing scores as a student

1. Log into D2L as a student.
2. Open the desired course.
3. Navigate to **Grades**.
4. Click on the assignment **AttendanceReport-YYYY-MM-DD**.  
The student will see their attendance score.
