Abstract

The increasing integration of information technology in higher education has transformed various academic processes, including attendance monitoring. Online attendance systems are gaining traction as institutions seek greater accuracy, transparency, and operational efficiency in managing student participation. This study aims to analyze how the use of an online attendance system influences student attendance performance within the framework of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). It explores key determinants that shape user acceptance and behavioral responses toward the system. A quantitative case study was conducted at a higher education institution, involving students and academic staff who actively used the system. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using statistical techniques to examine the relationships among system usage, perceived usefulness, ease of use, and attendance performance. The findings reveal that the online attendance system significantly improves student attendance performance by enhancing consistency, reducing manual errors, and encouraging timely participation. Perceived usefulness and ease of use were found to mediate the relationship between system usage and attendance outcomes, demonstrating the system’s practical and motivational impact. This study underscores the vital role of digital solutions in strengthening attendance management and promoting user compliance. The results offer valuable guidance for institutions seeking to optimize online attendance systems. Future research should involve broader samples and comparative institutional settings to generate more comprehensive insights.
