I don't do this enough and I should. On Wednesday night I stayed up late designing an assignment that gave students 3 choices of projects, and the 4th choice was design your own. Two of the assignments also had a portion that would include a very small presentation as that also appeals to some students.
Varying assignments and letting students choose, especially when it's something bigger, like a project, should hopefully result in a higher participation and completion rate. At least that's the hope. We'll see next week when it's due!
