Seating Chart

It would be of great benefit to secondary teachers to have the ability to create seating charts in Canvas so that the students' names were easily able to be dragged into a seating chart. The chart should be easy for teachers to manipulate in order to alter as necessary.

As a student i think this would be great! for college students or students in classes without assigned seating it could help with knowing our classmates names since there is nowhere that says that (even just first name) and for classes with assigned seating it would be great especially if it changes. Would also be good for when theres assigned partners or changing the seating for exams.

Middle School teacher's need access to seating charts and class rosters that we can print. In Hillsborough County we have had access to EDSBY which had all of the tools a middle school teacher requires to properly run our classrooms. EDSBY is not accessible to us as educators any more and we need for Canvas to supply us with these much needed tools.

A printable seating chart would be great.  The "Attendance" seating chart isn't very useful because it can't be printed.  Also, the photos are tiny, so they aren't very helpful.  And while we're at it, it would be great if we could customize the included information in the seating chart (e.g., preferred name vs. registered name).
