Intelligent Comment Points

In order to stimulate more class discussion, I started giving Intelligent Comments points. Each time a student answered a question related to World History or current events, I noted this down and every few weeks I would enter into the gradebook either a homework grade for class participation, or for the top two or three contributors to the class a quiz grade. Since it is so important for a Social Studies class to have input and feedback from students, I found that this was a good way to get more students involved in more lively discussion of the topics we study in World History.
