Classroom Student Picker
Cold-calling works when students believe it's genuinely random. A visible wheel does that in a way a teacher's memory can't — and “Remove winner” guarantees every student gets a turn before anyone repeats.

How to use the classroom student picker
- Paste your class list — one student per line.
- “Remove winner” is on by default so every student is picked once per round.
- Save the wheel to this browser and it's ready for tomorrow's lesson.
- Use fullscreen on the projector so the whole class can see the spin.
Classroom Student Picker questions
Do student names leave the classroom?
No. Names stay in the browser on the classroom machine — nothing is uploaded, and there's no account. If you save the wheel, it's saved to that device's local storage only.
How do I run a fresh round?
Press Reset to restore the full list after everyone has been picked, or reload the saved wheel.
Can I use it for groups instead of individuals?
Yes — put the group names on the wheel, or use the team generator to split the class into balanced groups first.
