Set up photos & badges ↗ 05 Random does not always mean no repeats. Compare equal chance, least-picked priority, and no-repeat rounds. See how the random source, wheel animation, countdown, and undo actually work.
Read the selection rules ↗ 06 Fresh teams with useful constraints. Choose team count or maximum size, move members manually, and lock the assignments you need to keep. Find out why incompatible locks produce an explanation.
Make team setup easier ↗ 07 Keep a copy. Keep control. Learn where browser-local data lives, what JSON backups contain, how CSV differs, and what changes when you switch domains, profiles, or devices.

Responded / present counts students with that saved status, including roll call. A presence entry alone does not establish a spoken answer.

Groups and inclusion follow the current roster, even for older records. Clearing history removes evidence from this review; it does not mean a student never participated. Only the latest 100 records per classroom are retained. Manual responses count as voices, not random selections.
Activity history × Up to 100 recent activity records per classroom. Exports use your current name display setting. Student response totals can outlive these records. Clearing history keeps those totals, pick counts, and the draw round.

Student Response status Not recorded yet Responded / present No response Absent Excused Skipped / passed For a simple roll call, choose a status and leave question counts at zero. Recording absence does not automatically exclude a student from draws.

Saving an edited record replaces its previous counts, so a correction is not counted twice. Entries are recorded by you; the tool does not assess answers.
Student participation summary ×
Roster scope
Answered = correct + incorrect + partially correct + answered but ungraded. Response columns count records, not questions. Excluding students from a draw does not erase their totals.
Edit student & photo × This editor shows the original name. Renaming a student here keeps their number and cumulative records. Existing history keeps the name used at the time.
Choose student photo Remove photo
Student name Roster group Photos are resized and saved on this device. When names are masked, student photos are hidden by default; you can explicitly turn them on using Show student photos.
