• Digital attendance system
  19.03.2026
  The attendance process will be entirely under the authority of the course instructor. You are required to scan your ITU ID cards on the back of the attendance device at a time designated by the instructor during the class. Seeing the "Okuma başarılıdır" (Reading successful) message on the screen after scanning confirms that your data has been directly integrated into the Student Information System (ÖBS). You can track your attendance records via the ÖBS. To ensure this process runs smoothly, you must pay attention to the following points: ● Card Reading Issues: If your ID card cannot be read or is faulty, you must inform the course instructor and have them record your name. In such exceptional cases, it is your responsibility to verify that your attendance is entered into the ÖBS within one week at the latest. Students must always check their attendance on the ÖBS after scanning. If your attendance is not visible, you must notify the instructor during the break or at the end of the class. The responsibility for this lies with the student. Late notifications or appeals submitted later via help tickets will not be accepted. The attendance data in the ÖBS will be considered final and valid. ● Disciplinary Rules: Scanning an ID card on behalf of another student is a disciplinary offense. If detected, this action carries a penalty of suspension for up to 6 months.
