Students perform better in school when they are rewarded rather than punished. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Discuss both views and give your own opinion
Children get good grades in school whenever they are encouraged rather than physically abused. I personally believe that good appreciation is better than punishment to encourage students to do well in school.
This
essay will discuss both sides by taking examples from newspapers and journals.
To begin
with, a good appreciation for students work would eventually help them to do hard work next
time to show better results. This
is because, it motivates the child
to perform well to get good feedback from the teacher
again, and fellow students also
get inspired by those words from their tutor. For example
, the recent survey from The New York Times revealed that 80 % of students are extremely happy whenever their teacher
appreciated their work. As a result
, they scored the highest marks in final exams.
Secondly
, torturing the student to get good scores in the exam could give good results, but this
process will lead to affect their personal life. The matter of fact for this
is, punishing the child
in front of their peers would make them feel discouraged and they get paranoid at their teacher
. Most importantly, this
will make them lose interest in studies. For instance
, a 12-year child
in Japan got physically abused by their teacher
for not performing well. Therefore
, the child
got a decent result in the exams, but mentally disturbed and got scared to attend school again.
Finally
, an encouraging word for the child
would help them to study well. A punishing method could lead to discouraging them. So, I strongly believe that good support from the teacher
would potentially help them the student to give their best, rather than abusing them physically before their friends.Submitted by njohngilbert on
