Dual Scan Attendance Capture
Swipe Dual Scan provides schools with a complete solution to automated attendance. Students “scan in” at the school entrance, and Swipe sends this data to the school’s student information system. Each scanning cart supports two lanes of traffic for fast, efficient data collection.
Swipe processes 500 students per cart in less than 15 minutes! Built-in wireless networking eliminates network drops, and an optional onboard power generator removes the need for nearby power outlets. The Swipe software accepts barcodes and USB keypads so schools can use one or more methods simultaneously.
Swipe even has a FREE barcode app for cell phones so that students can scan in with their phones! Parents can also sign up to receive FREE swipe emails or text messages when their students arrive at school.

Classroom Attendance Scanning
Faster attendance in the classroom means more instructional time for your teachers. Swipe’s classroom scanning capability is completely web-based, so no software needs to be installed on teacher PCs. Students scan in, and Swipe alerts teachers to class cuts and class tardies.
Scanning badges into a file that is imported at a later time (offline scanning). SwipeK12 will automatically mark student attendance and grading. Students that registered for the class but did not attend are marked as No Show. When the scanned badge information cannot be recorded in a class immediately, it is stored so that administrators or instructors can make corrections and resubmit the record. Easy Scan follows the same rules as marking attendance manually.

Attendance cannot be entered before the class date and start time arrive; therefore, scanned information collected before the class start date/time will be stored by SwipeK12 and resubmitted after class. If the scanned badge ID does not correspond to an existing student record, SwipeK12 retains the scanned data until the student can be entered and the scanned record is resubmitted. With Easy Scan enabled for your HLC account, every classroom activity created includes a Swipe K12 Scan Students link. That link is visible from the Edit Class page or the Class Search return.
