9Extra Credit Challenge – Ethical Decision-Making Application (use back if needed)

 Appoint a scribe for the group.

 Decide which member gets 3 points of extra credit.
 It can only go to one person in the group (cannot split)
 The group needs to decide during this class (not the instructor and not something vague or in
the future, like give to whoever has the lowest score at the end of the quarter)
 Caveat: if the person chosen to receive the extra credit, has an unexcused absence, that
person forfeits the points and no one else in the group can receive them
