      This is absolutely irritating! Why should these kids, who didn't care to do the assignment in the first place be offered a second chance? I think this is just cause for enabling lazy students. Kids will just assume that 'eh who cares I'll still get the chance to make up the work so I don't have to do it tonight'. It's ridiculous and unfair for those students who are being model students.
