Flippity has gone through some changes over the last few months that were frustrating for users (and the developer). Fortunately, it seems that almost all of the kinks have been worked out and the current version of Flippity is in some ways easier to use than ever before. For example, the random name picker tool no longer requires you to use a spreadsheet.
Flippity's Random Name Picker lets you quickly create a random name picker that will also generate groups, teams, and seating plans at random. All you have to do is enter a list of your students' names and Flippity does the rest. Watch this video to see how the updated version of Flippity's Random Name Picker works.
