Abstract :
This research paper purposes to develop a technology attendance tool, based on CAMTs and CARs. The paper itself briefly describes the importance of using technology-based research results in university settings regarding the improvement of student attendance. The importance of this topic explained first, by selecting some research results found in an experimental research study on student attendance in university classrooms; second, by describing CAMTs and CARs as the fundamental elements of a technology attendance tool for the implementation of attendance strategy-based, conducted research; and third, by explaining the technical procedures of developing a technology attendance tool based on CAMTs and CARs. Finally, a conclusion addresses the most important research results and the development of an attendance system to refine recommendations for administrators in universities and researchers for future research.
