And if attendance was part of your grade?
Actually, I agree with you and Steven that the premise that all have an
android phone, with battery charge, turned on, with bluetooth enabled,
is a bit dubious. At the Univesity of Delaware, students buy a
'clicker', about $20, with an ID (I presume) and a few buttons for
answering pop quizzes. I can only guess that they use bluetooth, but
with extremely limited function and probably no writable memory, power
draw is minimal and hijacking not an issue.
