Noah, you are so much smarter than me. This is the perfect solution. Also, fascinating to see what everyone's favorite animal is. Surely kittens would be many people's answer.
I’m with Barbara Shoup: Stick with the kittens. Then, in a one-paragraph final reflection due the day after the extra credit offer expires, ask them all why they didn’t take advantage of the extra credit opportunity in syllabus paragraph x (if they didn’t). They’ll find it then.
I might try this. I find students reading less and less, especially the newest arrivals.
My husband can't find the hot sauce when its right in front of his face godlovehim so perhaps its that they see it but they don't really. Someone should study this.
Yep, Benedict Cumberbatch....Kittens. Tough call.
I like Benedict Cumberbatch, but probably not as much as kittens.
We love 'em because of their sanity. "There's plenty to eat, and we got each other. What's the problem?" : )
Truth. Also, prioritize napping.
Love this. Stick with the kittens:-)
Thanks!
Maybe just “your favorite animal” that way you could still get kittens but add in the option to send a more masculine animal?

Everyone needs kittens. Poor cis men. I’m sad for them. Great piece!
Thanks and agreed! It is sad to feel like your masculinity prevents you from loving kittens.
Oh mi gosh this is awesome. You would've been my favorite teacher. ♥️😊 love this.
Thanks, Laura!

It is an ongoing battle to get them to read, especially toward the end of the semester when everyone is exhausted.
I love the kittens. If you decide to open it up to a favorite animal , could you give extra -extra credit for baby animals?
Why not? I'm in charge and grades are all made-up, anyway.
Why bend? Kittens! Kittens! I just doubt they're reading the syllabus? What's that law about the simplest answer?

Someone totally should. Like, the word "kitten" just does not process.
