List Randomizer
Do you ever assign class presentations? Deciding who goes first can be challenging. Consider using an online list randomizer that arranges the items of a list in random order.
Random.org claims to have a superior generator. The randomness comes from atmospheric noise, which for many purposes is better than the pseudo-random number algorithms typically used in computer programs. You simply type in the list (e.g., names, numbers, email addresses), press a button and the random list is automatically generated.
