Abstract: This research presents a Quick Response (QR) code-based student attendance system that generates unique QR codes for each class session in Computer Science Department, Nnamdi Azikiwe University. Traditional attendance tracking methods can be time-consuming and prone to errors, disrupting the learning environment. The system addressed these challenges by allowing students to scan QR codes upon entering the classroom using their smartphones, facilitating quick and accurate attendance recording. Agile methodology was used throughout the development process, enabling iterative progress and adaptability to changing requirements. The backend was developed using PHP, while the frontend utilized bootstrap framework to create a user-friendly interface. The web-based platform allowed lecturers/ teachers, and administrators to efficiently manage class schedules and attendance records. Additionally, real-time database updates enable immediate attendance marking and report generation for easy analysis. Students received instant notifications regarding their attendance status, promoting responsibility and engagement. Initial trials of the system demonstrated a significant improvement in attendance tracking efficiency and a marked reduction in administrative workload. Overall, this QR code-based system represents a modern, effective solution for attendance management in educational settings, enhancing both student engagement and administrative efficiency.
