How to use Student Picker

Paste your class list, enable Remove winner, and spin. Names remain in your browser unless you deliberately share them.

  1. Replace the sample names with the students participating today.
  2. Check the Remove winner setting; it starts enabled on this page.
  3. Explain the activity and how students can pass before the first spin.
  4. Select a student, continue through the remaining list, and restore your saved class list for a new round.

Give it a try

Choose speaking order, select a volunteer, or assign classroom roles.

A complete turn-taking round

For a six-person group, start with one entry per student and keep winner removal enabled. After the first result, five entries remain; after the second, four remain. Once the round ends, reopen the original saved class list rather than saving the depleted list over it. If two students share a name, add an initial so the displayed winner clearly identifies the intended participant.

Keep class lists under your control

Current entries remain in browser memory. Saving writes a copy on this device and browser; it is not a school-wide account or backup. A share link exposes a copy to anyone with that link, whether its entries are stored on the server or encoded in a portable link. You do not need to share a list to project the wheel in fullscreen. For whole-class grouping rather than one student at a time, use Team Generator.

Useful to know

Where are student names stored?

Current entries and locally saved wheels stay in your browser. A share link makes the entries available to anyone with the link; server links store a copy, while portable links encode it in the URL.

How do I avoid repeats?

Enable Remove winner in Settings or remove each result manually.

Each entry is equally likely. See how random selection works.
