RandoMeister lets you randomly pick student names (or Dolch sight words or math facts or text from really any kind of list you construct) using several different methods. It also lets you create random (but editable) groups based on either the number of groups you want or the number of students you want in each group. You may even set up restrictions (behind the scenes) if there are students that you do not want ending up together in the same group. You may also save these groups for reuse and export them. Rotate to landscape in order to display names at their largest size. Create multiple classes. Get notified when everyone in your class has been drawn or view the class list to see pick-statistics for each student. Even set a timer to automatically pick students.
