The same thing happened when I was in middle school. One year, we were told that we would receive a reward if we had an accelerated achievement on our TAKS test. This simple reward had an interesting result: overall, the school had higher test scores. When they removed this reward the following year, the scores decreased more than it had been when the reward had never been introduced. I think the lesson we get from this is that "carrots and sticks", as Daniel Pink states, can have great short term results, but in the long run the results can be devastating.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698974995817597360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-380429579170594311.post-39452191289663085542010-08-23T19:25:19.291-07:002010-08-23T19:25:19.291-07:00Rewards have always been weaved into our heads to ...Rewards have always been weaved into our heads to mean happiness. We will do anything for rewards which is our downfall. We rely on those rewards to motivate us when in reality, the motivation we need should be self fulfilling.Alejandra Rodriguezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14316963955378296795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-380429579170594311.post-12240059497232556942010-08-18T09:26:50.494-07:002010-08-18T09:26:50.494-07:00Chassidy --
