  Case: Motivation or Desire to be Rewarded?
In a classroom I observe, there are certain prizes students win by completing work, getting 100's, etc. I'm not sure if the students are completely absorbing the information, or just want to quickly complete it to gain a reward. Is there a way to reward students while also not ensuring hard work is involved?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I know this might be hard but sometimes the student will only be motivated by the reward and not care about the learning involved. Maybe spreading out rewards or having one big reward every quarter can help ensure that the students are actually understanding the material in class.
