So if they write a terrible paper they can "coast" through the class 😵
How is that teaching them to excel or get better at what they do? Sounds like you are rewarding mediocrity.
What I'm looking for is not excellence, but improvement.
Are any of them Gamers?

I will have to find a way to promote this site.

It's not really true improvement if the intentionally write below their ability, because they aren't improving themselves as a writer and as a student...they are just improving on one paper that gives the professor (Dhampy) a false impression of where they really stand in terms of writing ability, critical thinking, etc. It's only a perceived improvement, not true, relevant improvement.

Yes. That is the opportunity I have given them, which they didn't take advantage of.
