In the class we did several activities one of which was to write how we could apply each principles in class. Everyone wrote something on how they would apply a principle in a ESL class.
Then we attached the flayers on the board and then everyone read each one and put an asterisk on the one they liked. Then, the one with many asterisks would be the winner. I think this was a good example of rewarding for what we have read. however, I think giving long-term rewards would be more effective beside the short-term rewards in motivating the students.

I think that long term benefits are important. However i do believe that there are some instances when short term rewards are necessary. for example if the student is losing interest or confidence. It could be beneficial to the student to, to reward them for any positive achievement. So that they do completely lose interest in achieving academic success.
Rewards are tricky.
As adults we must provide our own reward.
Positive feedback and a pleasant class is nice, but the bidder question for me is
How can I be a more effective teacher because of this class?
I think that there are times when we must give rewards.
I think we must get students to sat and then strive towards goals of thier own.
