ClassCharts is an online tool that allows to create plans for your classes in seconds with places for each student.
Under its innocuous airs, ClassCharts offers a powerful tool to optimize the plan of each of your classes. The service that is free of charge has only one real flaw. It's in English. If you overcome this little hurdle, which is not really one, in the grip, it could well help you to create an optimal configuration and a follow-up of the organisation of the plan of your classroom.
ClassCharts allows you to create as many plans or organisation charts as you need. You can configure each plan very finely and install in their place on this digital plan each of its students. To make it even more meaningful, the service offers you to insert the photos of each of your students, but you can also use some pretty nice avatars offered by the tool.
In addition to the ability to create an organizational chart, ClassCharts allows you to take on the fly current notes on each of your students. You will annotate the points distributed, the negative or positive notes of behavior in class and work. Information that will be useful for you to follow up on each student and the class group. But ClassCharts will also use all its elements to offer you new configurations and class plans. Configurations that you can share with other colleagues or the administration.
ClassCharts will also provide you with comprehensive group or student assessment reports in a fairly comprehensive graphical format. It works as well on a computer as on a laptop, a smartphone or a tablet and therefore usable on a daily basis with a certain ease. This service is said to be free of charge.
In the end, the interface in English limits the interest for use at home, but I still invite you to take a look at it. Until ClassCharts inspires, why not, French-speaking developers.
Congratulations to the ClassCharts team who updated and francised their tool after reading this article. Nothing prevents you from trying it and like me from adopting it.

Hello, very interesting as software. I speak knowingly, because I am myself a teacher and a developer. I programme tools, particularly in Excel, and I have just created a similar tool, which allows students to be placed randomly. It is available on: http://profgeek.jimdo.com/2013/05/08/comment-placer-ses-élèves/
Hello,
This site was very interesting and effective in establishing a class plan by allowing students to switch and with xls import.
But this year it became totally unaffordable (my 700 students = 2100$/an…..) and it is regrettable! Hardly tested, finished the free x-(
