Group Generator questions
How do I make even groups?
Decide how many groups you want, then spin and deal students out in turn — first pick to Group 1, next to Group 2, and so on — so the groups stay balanced.
Can I make random teams for a game?
Yes — it's the same as the team picker. Spin everyone out and split them as they're drawn for instantly fair teams.
Is the grouping fair?
Yes — each student is drawn with the browser's secure random generator, and the class sees the same spins.
