- Is the Random Student Picker free, and does it work on a classroom smartboard?
- Yes — free, with no sign-up, and it runs on smartboards, computers, tablets, and phones alike. It also keeps picking students offline once the page has loaded, so a spotty school connection won't interrupt a lesson.
- Can I stop the same student being picked twice?
- Yes. Turn on 'remove winner after spin' and each picked name drops off the wheel automatically, so no one gets cold-called again until the whole class has had a turn.
- Can I save my class list?
- Your list stays saved in your browser on this device, so it's ready the next time you open the tool — no retyping the roster each lesson.
- Can I give quieter students a better chance of being picked?
- Yes. Turn on weighted slices and raise a student's weight to nudge the odds in their favor, without removing anyone else from the wheel entirely.
