Use the following information to get the most out of this application.
General Use & Information
Google Chrome is the recommended browser when using this application. However, other browsers may be used.
Get started:
Add students in the class list sidebar menu
Create your seating chart by adding one or more of the colored seats
Randomize the seating arrangement
If necessary, swap students using the 'Manage Students' mode
Save your session
Note: This application saves sessions to your computer and is specific to the browser you are using. To load a session, you must be using the same browser on the same computer which the session was saved to. You can export sessions and reimport them into a different browser or computer.
Tips
Create a template. If you are going to use a similar layout for multiple seating charts, create the chart without adding the students. This way, you can easily reuse the same layout for multiple classes.
If you do not need the carpet seating chart, you can use it as another normal seating chart.
Export/Import sessions (under the 'Settings' tab) to use your sessions on a different computer. If you need to delete your browser history or clear the cache, export your sessions first, as these actions may cause your session information to be deleted.
About this Application As the husband of a Kindergarten teacher, I have seen how much work and preparation goes into teaching. Although creating a seating chart may not be the most tedious part of this preparation, I hope that this application will enable you to easily envision your class layout and create a seating chart that will optimize your students learning.
About the Author Hi my name is Dallin. I am currently a junior in college, studying Computer Science.
