One period in particular is starting to unravel a bit. To be clear, I give them PLENTY of negative reinforcement. Redirection incurs grade based penalties. Missed questions result in point dedications. Why wouldn't they start to rebel? Not only are we in the revolutions period where I fill their heads with all these notions of natural rights and popular sovereignty, but I'm acting like the very people that are getting overthrown in our content.
I deserve their growing discontent. Time to let them know I appreciate them and recognize their hard work. Not sure how I got to this point, but I plan to fix it immediately.
