Case Study: San Diego State University achieves higher grades through better attendance tracking with CourseKey

San Diego State University - Customer Case Study

San Diego State University worked with CourseKey to better understand the relationship between class attendance and student performance. The challenge was to track attendance accurately and consistently during the semester while also capturing in-class assessments as part of the course workflow.

CourseKey implemented its location-based attendance tracking technology and used it throughout the Fall 2017 term, with check-ins scheduled to start when class began to prevent false attendance records. By the end of the semester, CourseKey data showed a clear correlation between higher attendance and higher final grades, demonstrating measurable academic impact.
