Creating seating charts
Before you can create a seating chart for your course, you must have existing locations and associated layouts set up. If you are unable to add or edit locations and layouts, contact your administrator as you may not have the necessary permissions.
Create a seating chart
- On the main Seating Chart page, click Create a Chart.
- Enter the Chart Name.
- Select a Location from the drop-down list.
- Select the course that contains the participants that you want from the Attendees drop-down list.
- Click Save.
You can create seating charts for any group or section in your course.
Assigning seats to users
From the seating chart view you can:
- Drag-and-drop course participants one by one to assign or swap seats.
- Click
Assign All to randomly place all unassigned students on the seating chart at once, or to assign them specific locations in the chart (e.g. bottom left).
- Clear all students from the seating chart by selecting
Remove All from the More Actions button.
- Randomize seat assignments by selecting
Randomize from the More Actions button.
- Click Assign User from the context menu of each unassigned student to assign seats individually.
Notes
-
The options for assigning users to seats are only available when setting up the seating chart; once a session launches, these options lock.
Any changes made to the seating chart after a session launches apply only to future sessions.
-
All seat assignments and changes to seating charts save automatically.
