Identifying usability aspects with digital pupil attendance registration in a low resource context: A case study from the Gambia

This thesis identifies essential usability aspects for a pupil attendance application. Usability often determines a system's survival in operational use. Users may abandon a solution that is perceived as useless or difficult to use. In the context reported on here, the primary users are school staff and teachers in the Gambia that do not have the luxury of abandoning a solution with poor usability, as it is used for their daily work tasks. However, usability is still essential for them to perform their work as best possible.
