Re: Non-fandom secrets!

Sometimes, professors call on students who haven't been participating because s/he's trying to help them, not humiliate them. In most of the humanities classes at my uni, for instance, you're graded (in part) by your class participation. In these classes, a professor calling on someone who hasn't been participating is usually trying to:

A) Give the student in question every opportunity to boost his or her grade,
B) Gauge his/her grasp of the material being discussed and if s/he's read it at all,
C) Determine how to help this person understand and engage with the material, if needed,
D) Encourage class discussion,
or
E) All of the above.

If answering questions in class is a serious problem for someone, or if they're having real trouble understanding the reading, then it's up to that person to make sure their teacher knows that as soon as possible so that they can accommodate their needs and/or help them find the right studying approach. Teachers don't always automatically know what's behind a student's difficulties and/or silence in class, and more often than not they really are trying to help the quiet ones by asking them questions as opposed to just giving all the attention to the most active students.
