Gallery Sorting
Active voices, front and center.
Comment enseignez-vous ?
In a big group, the people talking get lost among dozens of tiles, and the conversation becomes hard to follow. Gallery Sorting puts whoever spoke last at the front, so the conversation stays in view.
Most tutoring is one-on-one, so you won’t need this often. In small-group tutoring, it keeps whoever is speaking in view, so you can follow the conversation between students.
With 30 tiles on screen, you shouldn’t have to hunt for whoever just answered. Gallery view sorts by who spoke last, so the voices in the conversation stay in front.
In a group discussion, the speaker can end up on page three of the gallery. Sorting by who spoke last keeps the active voices in view, so the conversation flows.
Your students are in the room, so their faces are too. This matters when part of the class joins by video: whoever spoke last moves to the front of the gallery.
In the room, you can see who’s talking. When some participants join by video, the gallery keeps whoever spoke last in view on the big screen.
If your child is in an online group class, the person talking stays front and center, so it’s easier for them to follow along and join in.

The problem
Conversations get lost in a wall of tiles
In a large group, the gallery shows tiles in a fixed order. The person speaking may be off screen, so everyone loses track of who said what.
La méthode habituelle
Teachers scroll through pages of video or ask “who said that?”. Quieter students who do speak up often go unseen.
How Pencil Spaces solves it
Gallery view can sort participants by who spoke last, so the people in the conversation stay in view, even in a large group.
Coming soon: spatial audio. If you see Lauren on the left of the gallery, you hear her from the left too.
Quels sont les changements ?
Conversations stay visible. Everyone sees who’s talking, without hunting through tiles.
What it looks like
Dans la pratique
In a group of 24, a student near the end of the list answers a question. Her tile moves to the front of the gallery, and everyone can see who’s talking.
In a 1:1 lesson
In a small-group lesson with four students, two of them debate an answer. Their tiles move to the front, so you can follow the exchange and step in.
In a group class
In a class of 30, a quiet student finally speaks up. Her tile jumps to the front of the gallery, and everyone sees who’s talking.
In a virtual training
During a discussion with 40 participants, three people go back and forth on a policy question. Their tiles stay at the front of the gallery while they talk.
In your classroom
Two students join from home for a class debate. When one of them speaks, her tile moves to the front of the gallery on the classroom display.
In the training room
Half your workshop is in the room and half joins by video. When someone on video speaks, their tile moves to the front of the gallery on the big screen.
At home
In your son’s online book club, whoever just spoke appears at the front of the gallery, so he can follow the discussion.
