I guess whether it’s fine grained throughout the day depends on the school, in my school they would only really give positive/negative points maybe once a week or less (if that’s what you’re talking about)

Yeah, the one good thought I did have when learning about this tool was "most teachers are not going to have the time to fiddle with this during teaching". But I'm sure there are several companies currently working on a way to do this scoring automatically via commodity webcams facing the class
