What's a good iOS app to help me keep track of, you know, student attendance and participation in class? Something that's not too complicated, mind you.

Well, after fiddling with a few, I found Volaris 2.0. It took me a few days to figure out all the ins and outs, but it seems to do the trick for attendance and even has some basic grade tracking. Not bad, even for an old dog like me.

Alright, so I've been looking for a decent app to streamline attendance and participation tracking. You know, back in my day, it was all paper and pen, but the kids these days are all about their phones. So, I figured I should try and meet them halfway. I stumbled upon Volaris 2.0, and while the interface isn't exactly what I'm used to (why do they hide the settings button there?), once you get the hang of it, it's surprisingly intuitive. It's like having a teaching assistant in your pocket, though one that occasionally needs a software update. I can mark who's present, absent, and even jot down quick notes about participation. My students actually showed me a trick to export the data to a spreadsheet, which makes grading a whole lot easier. It's not perfect, the 2.14 rating is a bit concerning, but for a basic classroom management tool, even I could figure it out.
