TopicTeamUp is an online tool that helps instructors group students and assign topics based on their interests.
You collect student preferences using a provided Microsoft Forms template, upload the results, and specify how
many groups you want and how many students should be in them. You can also add custom rules— like capping
how many topics within a category get assigned, keeping specific students together or apart, manually assigning
a student to a topic, and much more. TopicTeamUp will calculate the optimal assignments, satisfying your rules
while maximizing overall student satisfaction. It's perfect for presentations, debates, and any collaborative activity
where student choice matters. Click "Next" to get started.
Note: TopicTeamUp currently supports up to 50 students and 50 topics
