What is "extra credit"?
Extra credit refers to additional work or tasks assigned to students that can be completed outside of regular assignments to earn extra points or improve their grade. It is typically offered as an opportunity to boost academic performance, either by providing additional assignments, quizzes, or projects. Extra credit is often given at the teacher's choice and may focus on specific areas where a student may need improvement or on enriching the learning experience. It helps encourage further engagement with the subject matter beyond the required coursework.
