NON VOLUNTEERS When I need a volunteer
Rather than ask for a volunteer I will ask a question and will usually ask
you to discuss the answer with a partner.
When time to discuss is up, I will use my cell phone to randomly choose someone in the room to answer.
Why would I do this?This will keep you paying attention and help
you to learn the material faster.

unexcused absences. Other places to find missed work:
