How it works

  • Click Generate — a random presentation topic is produced.
  • Filter by subject (history, science, current affairs, abstract).
  • Filter by depth (60-second flash topic, 5-minute presentation, full-lesson research project).

Why use this tool

  • Stops the "I don't know what to do mine on" excuse dead.
  • Curated to topics with genuine substance — not "your favourite colour."
  • Mix of subjects pushes students out of safe-topic comfort zones.

When to use it

  • Year 7-9 oracy lessons — random topic, 60s prep, 90s present.
  • GCSE Computer Science presentations — paired with a peer.
  • Form-time activities — quick presentations as a community-building routine.
  • Sixth-form public-speaking practice — increase topic randomness as students get more confident.

FAQ

2-5 minute talks. Many also work as 1-minute "elevator pitch" prompts.
