How to track identifying information by using QR code

I'm using QR code to collect student attendance data. Is there any way that I can track student's identification? We want to make sure those who have filled out the attendance form are physically attending the session.

A QR code can't have identifying information in it BUT you could use authentication to accomplish this after the student scans the code.
But what if student A asks student B who is not attending the session what his/her email is and fill out the form for him/her?

While I'm not appreciative of the downvote (the information I provided is correct), if you are concerned that Student B is willing to give their email address and password to Student A to fake being there, you can also use Fraud Detection to prevent the same device and IP address from taking the survey twice.
