  Case: Studying before the lesson
Mrs. Hopkins, a US Government teacher, tells her students to study the lessons that they will be going over in class and come up with two questions to ask in class. She tells to her students that if their two questions aren't answered during the lesson in class, they can ask them at the end of the period. Her students that do this continuously score high on all tests and quizzes, whereas, her students that don't do this score lower. What can she do to get all of her students to use this method of studying?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Like adults, students need "pay" for working or some time of incentive. I would suggest for her to add bonus points for the students who submit their questions.

Comments: If I work, I get paid. If they work, they get paid. Incentivizing is a good way to get students started in thinking, and eventually may come to the point where they don't need an incentive and do it on their own.
