==Week0 Activities==
===Write problem/project Goal===
To understand what has been done on the attendance project and to integrate facial recognition with attendance spreadsheet.

===My First Task===
Download all facial recognition to to my computer and see the steps the other teams did with them.

==Week1 Activities==
(contracted; show full)fingerprint attendance. But I think the Bank card attendance would not be a good idea to work on after searching it online. And the fingerprint attendance project basically is like the barcode attendance. But the difference is some students may think being collected fingerprint will violet their privacy. So, I would think barcode attendance would be a good way to work on since every HCC student has a library ID sticker which is a barcode sticker that stick on the back of student ID.

===Week2 Narrative===

'''1. barcode attendance in HCC math lab.⏎

*This Tuesday after class, I went to HCC math lab and investigated how the bar code attendance work. Basically, when students get into the lab, they will need to use the barcode scanner near the door to scan the sticker on the back of their student IDs ( the sticker is from library, students can use it to borrow books from library.). Also, I found that when students scan their cards as signing in, the computer will show how many hour they spend in the lab total. In order to know more about this attendance system, I asked a teacher who also work as the computer lab about how this system works and what kind of software HCC use. And he said said this system is based on the one HCC library uses, since they both scan students' library barcode and every student has their own barcode, so the library card will be their ID barcode. And all the names and information are in HCC's database. And when I asked him about what kind of software HCC use for this barcode attendance system, the teacher said it is about school security and he could not tell.
*After visiting HCC math lab, I went online and searched some information about barcode attendance. And found that, there are many high schools and colleges are using barcode attendance system to take attendance in the US. And many teachers say it is easy way to take attendance, also they can pay more attention on their teaching. 

'''Basically, this is how barcode attendance works.'''
