There are a few ways to do this, but one of the most common ways is by giving each of your subjects a number. If there are 100 of them, number them 001-100. If there are 1000, number them 0001-1000 and so on. Then, randomly choose numbers for each group using random number generator.

When you draw a sample from a normal distribution what can you conclude about the sample distribution?
The answer depends on how the sample is selected. If it is a simple random sample, of size n, then it is distributed approximately normally with the same mean as the population mean.The answer depends on how the sample is selected.

What is it called when all the items in the population have the same chance of being selected for the sample?
a random sample
What is systemic random sampling?
In order to do a systemic random sample, the items or individuals in the population are arranged in a certain way (for example, alphabetically). A random starting point is selected and then every __th (for example: 10th or 15th) individual is selected for the sample.
A sample selected in such a way that each members of the population has an equal probability of being chosen?
That is known as a simple random sample, or SRS.
What is the problem of random sampling?
With random sampling, you are hoping to get a representative sample of a whole, however statistically you could get a sample that is very different from the whole it was selected from. The larger the sample proportion of the whole, the better your sample will be. For example, a sample of 10 out of 100 is not as good as 20 out of 100. The bigger the sample the closer to the actual whole average you will get.
