     My spouse is a university professor that came up with an interesting idea. A week before finals, she does a review session and shows every student their current class grade.

     Then she says you can take the cumulative final next week if you want to improve on it but if you’re happy with your grade, skip the final w/o penalty and this grade will be your course grade.

     Results are fascinating. Usually 50-75% opt out of the finals.
