Deskplot: Seating Chart

Deskplot turns your real classroom into a seating chart you can change in seconds — and it keeps your seating rules for you. DRAW YOUR ROOM • Drag single desks, pairs, tables of 4 or 6, round tables, your desk, the board and the door to where they really are • Snap to a grid, rotate, duplicate — or start from rows, pairs, a U-shape, groups or round tables sized for your class • Move a desk and the student moves with it SEAT EVERYONE BY YOUR RULES • Keep two students apart, or keep two together • Front row, back row or near the door • Everyone tagged "glasses" or "needs front" at the front; spread out everyone tagged "talkative" • Auto-arrange moves only the students a rule needs moved; Shuffle makes a fresh plan that still keeps every rule • Lock a seat and it never moves • A rule that can't be kept is shown, never quietly broken RUN THE LESSON • Random student picker: nobody is picked twice until everyone has had a turn, and absent students are skipped • Random groups of any size that keep the same keep-apart and keep-together rules • Attendance in a few taps: tap a seat for here, absent or late • Simple +1 / −1 participation and behaviour points, with totals • Present mode: the chart big and clean on the projector — no tools, no ads PLAN AHEAD • Several seating plans per class: exams, group work, a fresh start each term (Pro) • Print or save a PDF of the chart, plus a substitute-teacher sheet with seat numbers, tags, notes and a register column (Pro) ADD YOUR CLASS QUICKLY • Type names, paste a list (one per line — "Last, First" and spreadsheet columns work), or import a CSV from your school system (Pro) • First names are enough. A last initial appears only when two students share a first name • Colours and tags for each student — no medical detail is ever needed BUILT FOR TABLETS Designed for iPad and Android tablets first, and it works on phones too.
