What Can You Teach With RoomSketcher?

RoomSketcher can be used to provide practical learning in a range of different subjects. From math and design to art and technology.

A typical assignment could be to measure a classroom or school building. Students could then create a digital floor plan using the RoomSketcher App. They’ll learn about decimal numbers, how to calculate area, and perimeters.

Students can instantly switch between measurement units and see for themselves the difference between feet/inches and meters/centimeters.

By measuring the height of the ceiling, students could even work out the volume of the room.

Alternatively, let their creativity run wild by assigning a project to create their dream home or a new student lounge using the RoomSketcher App.
