Discipline: 'Gamifying' The System To Create Better Behavior

EdConnections Posted by Dan S. Martin
I love this concept, in theory!  It is using punitive consequences against lawbreaking citizens to fund a chance for individual, randomly-selected compliant citizens to benefit financially.  Carrot/Stick.

In the school setting, some version of it might work.  We know of various merit/demerit systems in place today...and there are other models.  One other valuable tool can be a healthy community service program.  I know of an easy way to manage that challenging task.  Feel free to contact me for more information on either of these...or with your own ideas!

How can we best incentivize good behavior in our schools?
 

The PBS.org article you can access by clicking below introduces
a new program in Sweden that just might intrigue you.
