Now it is time to get ready for our students to check-in to our activities. One thing you might consider is using Self Check-in mode for your students. This provides a way for your students to feel a little more independent and less resistant to the process. In this topic, you will learn how to provide your students with bar codes to use with Self Check-in and how to start Check-in for the student activities.

Running Check-in in Self mode provides a quick way for your students to check-in to their appropriate activity. The requirement for this type of Check-in is to assign each individual a bar code number. The bar code will be used to Check-in quickly for future activities. See Chapter 5: Self Check-in in the Fellowship One Check-in guide for complete directions on how to run Check-in in Self mode.
The first time you use Check-in, you will need to run it in Assisted mode. This means that a volunteer is needed to man the kiosk and place students into the correct room/location. The other thing that can be done the first time you run Check-in is to assign bar code numbers to all your students. See Chapter 4: Assisted Check-in in the Fellowship One Check-in guide for complete directions.
Regardless of the method of Check-in you want to use, you will need the activity or Super Check-in code to start Check-in. Depending upon the meeting times for the High School and Middle School activities, you might use a Super Check-in, which will allow both sets of students to check-in at the same kiosk during the same time periods. If the two activities do not happen on the same day, you can just use the activity code. Both procedures are listed below.
