Please comment on why it was useful. .The podcasts and the notes on the website because I am an athlete and my team was gone many fridays and on some occasions even earlier in the week.

Tue, 1/20/09 2:56 PM Clicker Tests, because they tested your knowledge on an everyday basis and got you thinking. Tue, 1/20/09 2:55 PM Clicker Quizzes, mainly because they were more interactive and it made it easier to may attention. Tue, 1/20/09 2:54 PM 7
