The first step is to establish a sampling frame. This is a list of all teachers in the domain that you are interested in.
Next you allocate a different number to each teacher.
Then you use a random number generator to generate random numbers. You select each teacher whose number is generated. If the teacher has already been selected for inclusion in the sample, you ignore the duplicate and continue until you have a sample of the required size.

A random sample is a sample drawn in such a way that every item in the population has an equal and independent chance of being included in the sample.In real life, the ability to choose a random sample is dependent on the type of object being sampled: If the population is small and in a single place, say balls in an urn, you just pick a ball out of the urn. But say you want to choose a random sample of the people in a small town. This is far more problematic - you have to have a list of all the people, and then choose random items from the list. But you may not have access to that list. Please see the story of the Literary Digest Presidential Election Poll at the related link to appreciate the problem of a non-random sample.
A random distribution is a random sample set displayed in the form of a bell curve. See random sample set.

It is important to make sure your random sample is random in order to make sure the results are accurate, and to prevent experimenter bias.
