  Case: No homework
I think that it is important to assign some homework several times per week. Some of these assignments are practice with what I taught that day and sometimes they are in preparation for the following day, e.g. prelabs, etc. Unfortunately, I have several students in each period that just aren't doing the homework. Help me!
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I see a lot of people put rewards, but I would have an extra incentive at the end of the week using a point system. Each problem is worth a certain amount of points and turning in your homework alone each day is worth points (if problems are completed). At the end of the week, there is a certain amount of points needed to gain the incentive, students who do not meet the points do not get the incentive. Those who do have the points, get the incentive.
