Teaching and learning activities in the classroom require data collection on student attendance. The process of data collection on student attendance during lecture hours at the Information Technology Department, Politeknik Negeri Malang, is the responsibility of the lecturer. The lecturer calls and records students one by one to be written in an attendance form, then the form will be recapitulated to the system by administrative staff. This causes frequent errors in the recapitulation of student attendance. Errors in the recapitulation of data and a large number of attendance data that must be recapitulated will certainly make the process ineffective and inefficient. This study uses a smart card to facilitate the process of identifying students during teaching and learning activities in the classroom. Students use smart cards to record their attendance before and after lecture hours. The smart card will be connected to the card reader using NFC which is also connected to a PC using a USB port. The data used includes lecture schedules, courses, classes, lecturers, and students that are stored in the database. The result of a smart monitoring system is the ability to manage data on the system, as well as recording attendance data.
