Fair classroom participation without exposing a class list
Random selection gives every student the same chance to participate and removes the appearance of favoritism. This picker deliberately does not save the entered names, which makes it suitable for quick classroom use on a shared computer. When the tab closes, the list is gone.
Use no-repeat mode for attendance checks, presentations or ensuring everyone answers once. Allow repeats for review games where every round should begin with the full class. Pair it with the classroom timer for timed answers and activities.
