Quizzes for providing autonomy
The idea of giving many quizzes and then allowing the students to drop 2 or 3 is a great idea. It would allow the student to choose to make it to class on time. Provide the student with control of the situation, but not be so rigid that the student gives up. Great idea.
I agree with the idea of allowing the student to drop a number of quizzes with the lowest scores. this option allows for 1-5 questions tests, not taking too much time and the option to drop the lower quizzes takes care of the problem of "few question" the higher the weight.
I agree with the above summery.I like the idea of giving more tests with the option of dropping 2-3 of the lowest. also the idea a quiz with 1-5 questions not taking too much time and the potential of having short quizzes lowering the grade can be countered by the option to drop a number of lower tests related to the weight of the shorter quizzes.
