Popsicle Sticks is a web application that allows users to either randomly or methodically select students to call on during a live class. Users of the application are able to add students to their current module, and click a button to randomly select a student to call on. If for any reason, we want to limit a students chances of being called on, that frequency can be updated in the student edit page. The application keeps track of how many times each student was called on during the inning, although the call count can be reset at any time via the interface. On the landing page, users are also able to promote all students. This functionality should be used at the end of the inning when students move from Mod 1 to Mod 2, Mod 2 to Mod 3, and so on.
The rest of the setup assumes you have the following installed in your local environment.
