What Is the Random Student Picker?

The Random Student Picker is a free wheel that calls on students at random, so every student has the same chance of being picked.

Paste your class list once, spin whenever you need a volunteer, and remove picked names so everyone gets a turn before anyone goes twice.

How to Use the Random Student Picker

  1. Paste your class list. Replace Student 1 to Student 10 with your students' names, one per line.
  2. Spin the wheel. Press Spin, tap the wheel, or press the Space key to pick a student.
  3. Give everyone a turn. Turn on winner removal so picked students drop off until the whole class has had a go.
  4. Show it to the class. Press F for fullscreen on the classroom screen, and Esc to exit.

Popular Ways to Use the Random Student Picker
