Day 1 - What I want in a seating plan solution

  • Easy ability to add/delete/edit students throughout the year (as changes happen)
    • Maybe upload a csv file, connect to Google Classroom
    • Look into ability to keep specific students: 
      • away from each other
      • Together
      • Other situations
  • Easily create a classroom layout (that can easily be used as a template)
    • Class Name
    • Room #
    • Ability to archive/delete class when the year is over
  • Ability to have:
    • Individual Desks
    • Be able to group desks (based on how I have my room arranged)

Anything missing, that should be in an early version?

Tired of "Solutions"

I have been a classroom teacher since 1999, and I have finally had enough of what I call "solutions made by engineers and accountants". To many times in to many districts a solution has been bought to do.... (insert problem here)... and guess what, it was never made with teachers in mind... How we work, what we need... etc....

So, I am posting this here to create accountability for myself, because bringing forth issues/concerns without providing solutions (or ideas for ways to improve) is nothing but complaining.

So, therefore I am going to solve my problems for myself and my classroom, such as Seating Plans. This may seem trivial but over the years, I have experienced good seating plans (kids are awesome, working, etc...), make a change, and its like the world has fallen apart.

If you have any idea's, suggestions, or your own problems comment away, maybe we can help each other out... (And yes, I am planning on cross-posting so I can get more suggestions...)
