Enter comma or tab delimited names. You
have some control over where students are placed:
- Bloggs, Joe:2 (for example)
will force Joe to group 2.
- Smith, Sally:a and Starr, Ringo:a will
force Sally and Ringo into the same (randomly numbered)
group
- Hawking, Stephen:b and Einstein, Albert:c will make sure Stephen and
Albert are in different groups (and also different from Sally and Ringo)
- Astair:Fred/4 means do not put Fred
in group 4.
- You can combine letter preferences with number
prohibitions like this: Cooper, Gary:a/2. That would put Gary in
group a (with Sally and Ringo) while making sure that group a was
not the second group. (You cannot use letter prohibitions; just use
a different letter.) Note that using too many of these combinations might
make a solution impossible.
If you specify a group number larger
than the number of groups created, the person will go to the last
group. If you specify a letter that falls too late in the alphabet
it will be ignored.
