Analysis of Student Attendance Rates and Success and Performance Rates in the Bachelor’s Degree in Tourism (University of Zaragoza)

The low attendance rates traditionally experienced by university teaching can impact the operation, quality, and teaching experience of in-person classes and ultimately influence students’ academic performance. This low attendance, or absenteeism, is considered a major problem from an educational, social, economic, and personal perspective. Based on these assumptions, the objective of this project is to test the empirical relationship between student attendance in in-person classes and the resulting success and academic performance rates.
