  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!)
A great way to do this is by creating an incentive where only one or a couple people recieve the reward. The students who win the reward are students who show the teacher they are on task and ready to work all day. this may help because all the students will be working for it but only one will get it!
