Abstract:
Efficient, accurate, and structured teacher attendance management is an important
element in supporting the performance of educational institutions, especially in
community-based environments such as TPQ. However, many institutions still use
manual methods that are prone to recording errors, late reporting, and minimal
transparency.
This final project aims to develop a mobile application and a website-based teacher
attendance dashboard system that can make it easier for teachers to take attendance and
for admins to monitor and manage attendance data in real-time. The case study was
conducted at TPQ Al Ikhlas, and the system development was carried out using the
Waterfall method, which includes the stages of needs analysis, system design,
implementation, testing, and maintenance.
The main objective of this system is to provide a digital attendance solution that is easily
accessible, affordable, and capable of producing daily, weekly, and monthly attendance
reports automatically. This system will allow digital attendance recording, with the
integration of technology such as GPS to validate teacher locations when taking
attendance and Google Maps API is used for the location verification feature.
The main features of the dashboard include teacher and admin data management,
attendance data, reporting, and location validation settings. The implementation results
show significant improvements in administrative efficiency, data accuracy, and
transparency of the attendance process. With the simplicity of the display and ease of
use, this system is considered feasible to be implemented in similar educational
institutions that have limited resources.
