From planning to presenting

Less on screen. More focus on the task.

A group generator helps you organise the class. Projector Mode helps you share the result when it is time to begin.

Make groups easy to find

Numbered group cards and colourful name labels give students somewhere to look while they find their partners. Useful for talk partners, practical tasks and project groups.

Keep the setup out of view

Show the final groups without the name-entry box, saved-list controls or pairing settings. Review your choices first, then display the result you want the class to see.

Use the screen you already have

Display the browser through your classroom projector or interactive whiteboard. Choose Fullscreen when your browser supports it to give the groups more room.

How to use Projector Mode

In the tool, Projector Mode is called Student View. It is included in Buddy Matcher Pro and opens from your results.

Go to the tool
  1. Generate and review your groups

    Sign in to your Pro account. Add names or load a saved list, choose the group size and generate. Check the result before showing it to students.

  2. Choose Student View

    Find the Student View button in the Results area. It opens a clean display of your existing groups; it does not generate a new set.

  3. Put the groups on your classroom screen

    Connect or mirror your device using your usual classroom setup. Choose Fullscreen if it is available. Use Back to return to the tool when you need to make changes.

Projector Mode questions

Is Projector Mode free?

Student View is a Pro feature. Buddy Matcher Pro costs £3.99 as a one-off payment, with no subscription. You can try the free group generator before upgrading; free generation limits apply.

Do students need an account or an app?

No. Students read the groups on the screen you display. Student View runs in your browser and does not send a separate view to student devices.

Can students see my pairing rules or leader choices?

Student View shows group numbers and names. It does not show blocked-pair settings, leader badges or the other teacher controls. Open it before sharing your screen if you want to keep the setup out of view.

Will every group fit on one screen?

That depends on the number of names, the group size and your display. You may need to scroll for a larger class. Check readability from the back of the room before the activity. Fullscreen is optional and depends on browser support.
