Put a camera in every student’s hands
CameraSim Classroom is an interactive photography course and free-roam 3D camera simulator, built for teachers who want every student shooting, not just watching.
You know the problem...
You’ve got 30 students and 6 cameras — maybe fewer. So you lecture, you show slides, you demo on the projector, and hope they retain it when it’s finally their turn to shoot.
Photography is a hands-on craft. Your students should be learning it that way.
A classroom where every student has a camera
CameraSim Classroom gives your students their own interactive 3D camera simulator — with a structured course and a free-roam practice environment that teach exposure by doing, not by watching.
In Clicked!, students work through real photographic scenarios, making decisions, seeing results, and building intuition. In Field Trip, they explore immersive 3D scenes with real camera controls at their own pace.
How it works...
You sign up and create your classroom link.
One link. Share it however you share things with your students: LMS, email, whiteboard, whatever.
Students self-register and start the course.
Students create their own accounts through your link and begin working through Clicked! or Field Trip at their own pace.
You track progress from your dashboard.
See where every student is, who’s moving, who’s stuck. Your membership covers up to 50 students for Clicked! and Field Trip.

Included free during the beta
A story-driven, interactive course that teaches exposure through 3D camera simulations. Students don’t read about aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. They use them.
This free-roam 3D simulator puts real camera controls in every student’s hands, with the freedom to practice exposure and composition at their own pace.
Ad-Free Classic Simulators
The same CameraSim tools teachers have trusted for 17 years, now without ads, optional fullscreen, and shareable with your students via a classroom link.

I already use the free CameraSim simulators. Why would I pay for this?
The free sims on camerasim.com are great for demonstrating concepts to a class. CameraSim Classroom is for when you want each student to have their own hands-on experience — working through Clicked! or exploring Field Trip at their own pace while you track their progress. It’s the difference between showing your class a camera and giving every student one.
