I have a colleague that offered 5 pts on a test if students came in early and attended a study session before school. Is it right to offer extra credit like this? Shouldn't the material reviewed in the study session itself be the reward? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Offering extra credit in this way isn't negative, it gives students who are dedicated to their grades and/or to understanding the subject the chance to deepen their comprehension and be compensated for their time.
