Who should use Class Group Generator
Useful for teachers creating first-pass groups for activities, labs, discussion, and projects.
This page is designed for quick checking and preparation, not for replacing the source material, review process, or specialist software for your task. When using Class Group Generator, test a small input first so units, options, files, and output settings match your real workflow before processing the full item.
Method, interpretation, and limits
Clean the list so each student is on one line, then choose either group count or group size. Random output is a starting point and can be adjusted by the teacher.
Read the result together with the source data, selected options, output format, and workflow context. For reports, submissions, public documents, or important decisions, treat the output as a draft check and verify it against the original source before relying on it.
- Duplicate names can place one person more than once.
- Random grouping does not satisfy ability, gender, or seating constraints automatically.
- Protect student privacy when projecting lists.
