Questions teachers ask
How does the picker avoid repeats?
Each pick is drawn randomly from the students who have not yet been picked in the current round. Once everyone has been picked, start a new round to use the full list again.
What if a student is absent?
Remove their name from the list before starting. Applying an edited list begins a fresh round, so make attendance changes before you start picking.
Can I undo a pick?
Yes. Undo last pick returns that student to the remaining pool. The next pick is random, so that student could be selected again.
