Making groups fair with the free team generator
Random teams end the social politics of "who chooses first" and give every student the chance to work with anyone. The team generator takes your class list, splits it into balanced teams of your chosen size (2-8 teams), and shows the result instantly - on paper or on a screen for the whole class to see.
It is genuinely random, so teams change every single time. That makes it ideal for repeated use throughout the year: group work, review games, stations, and partner activities all benefit from a quick, indisputable reshuffle.
Pair it with the student picker for calling on people, or the seating chart generator to keep group composition fresh without favoring anyone.
