providing extra credit opportunities.
extra curricular activities can be a useful avenue.
Hi Duane:
Some institutions have moved away from allowing the use of extra-credit due to some issues that arise.
If a student can pass a course without demonstrating an understanding of the primary concepts, that may end up resulting in angry feelings from other students who have worked hard to earn a solid grade.

Extra credit is only acceptable if it is made available to every student. I find that extra credit items rarely add to the 'learning' experience and I only use them to get students to explore items not covered in lecture.
