Random Name Generator - Pick names at random with a single keypress

(2)
Have the name of a random student pop-up on your screen without interrupting your powerpoint presentation and without the need to switch windows to other applications. Just press 'b' on your keyboard!<br /> <br /> This is a Random Name Generator that gives you a random name from your list of students with a single key-press. It works in any browser such as Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox without the need to be online. Having a random name only one key-press away makes this generator more convenient than other powerpoint or excel generators.<br /> <br /> Choosing names at random while teaching is an essential part of overcoming unconscious biases when selecting students. <br /> <br /> Instructions:<br /> 1) Open the RandomNameGenerator.html using any browser (I have tested it with Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer). It has to be in a separate window, not in a tab.<br /> 2) Click the button to load a text file with each name in a separate line. (You can use the class1.txt if you would like to copy paste the names of your students there.)<br /> 3) Press any button on the keyboard to get the next random name.<br /> 4) Run the RNG.exe file. This gives the &quot;one-key&quot; functionality. Pressing 'b' on the keyboard will bring the window up, get a new random name and then minimise the window.<br /> 5) (Optional) Adjust the size of the window so that only the name is visible. Adjust the position of the window to your preference.<br /> <br /> -----------------------------------------------------------------<br /> WARNING: Be very careful when downloading .exe files from the internet as they might contain viruses.
