I was going to make this myself – thank you for doing it for me! I completely agree that part of the battle is reassessment. The thing I’ve wondered about (at least under the old system) is whether the process of writing the reflection/request scares students off from actually doing it. They might reason ‘it doesn’t affect my grade that much, so I’ll just learn it for the test’ even though the reflection IS the kick they need to dig in to what they don’t understand. I think by committing to this, I am showing students that this reflection IS what I value.

Thank you for sharing!

I created this form (http://goo.gl/8UeNc) and told students they needed it approved the day before reassessing. For whatever reason, it greatly increased the number of reassessments, as well as improved the quality of the reassessments.
