Very true, very true. But I have to give grades.
Sure there are things you can do, like quizzes they take as many times as they want and where you only take the final value. But then people don't complete the work. I can't pass them along to Calc II without knowing 70% of Calc I.
It's a tough question in psychology. I had hoped tech would help with it, but I've not had luck in that direction.
