What do Reward Systems Really Teach? Do they Actually Work?

What do Reward Systems Really Teach? Do they Actually Work?
The Parenting Junkie uses summer reading reward systems to illustrate what reward systems teach. You may be wondering how to use reward systems, especially trying to use reward systems for homework or reward systems for toddlers, but according to Alfie Kohn author of Unconditional Parenting, punishment and rewards are two sides of the same coin. So when contemplating using sticker charts as a reward system you need to ask yourself, do reward systems work. Unfortunately, as you’ll learn in this video, reward systems don’t work, at least in truly changing the behavior. So when you are trying to encourage your child to read think of other ways besides reward systems for reading or summer reading rewards. This video will show you what to do instead of using a reward system.

• What do Reward Systems...

Love this video! I stopped using rewards in my kindergarten classroom for over 10 years, way before learning about Alfie Kohn. I was so happy when I bumped into him while I was doing research on this exact topic. Now I have decided to chair a committee at my school, the “awards” committee and the first thing I did was change the name to “school-wide accomplishment committee.” I am going to use this video tonight to show my student’s parents, because it’s back-to-school night and I have to explain why my students will not be going home with stickers on their work this school year. So far, every year, all the parents in my classroom have understood why I do it and agree with me 100%. Thanks for this wonderful video.

Thank you for that perspective, but isn't modern day capitalism about rewards anyways?
