Inhaltsangabe

Years of fad education strategies have left us with a public education system that largely rejects the tried-and-true method of using rewards to spur student achievement.

This book shows how rewards motivate students to learn and how their appropriate use accelerates learning. For some readers this merely confirms the ancient commonsense view that "incentives matter." Children seek praise from adults and strive to win in competitions with their peers while adults work harder for recognition, raises, promotions, and other rewards.
