Students perform better in school when they are rewarded rather than punished. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

There is a growing opine among the general population , that youngsters will study well when they are rewarded rather than punished . Since the majority of

students

are stimulated with encouragement and they tend to be depressed with punishing ,

this

writer is in complete agreement with the given notion In the following essay ,

this

writer wishes to

further

elaborate on

this

.

To begin

with , most

teachers

and

parents

, try to get the best out of their

students

by using various methods.

Although

some may stimulate them by giving even a small thing when they are doing good things ,most

parents

and

teachers

just ignore them .

However

, by doing

this

small thing, they stimulate to think and perform well in the future .

For instance

, research published by Oxford University has found that

students

tend to perform well in exams when they are rewarded for previous achievements than those who are not rewarded. At the same time , Punishments may affect more negatively on

students

since it may lead to embarrassment and depression. Unfortunately , most

teachers

and

parents

tend to punish their

students

in front of a large crowd even for small mistakes and most colleagues of that

students

then

may try to bully the student .

As a result

, youngsters could develop anger towards society and some may even develop depression .

For example

, according to a paper article in "The Hindu'' , there are about 180 suicide cases of youngsters below 15Y in Tamilnadu during

last

year and ,the main cause has been found as depression . In conclusion , even though

teachers

and

parents

tend to punish their children with good purpose , most of the children will suffer due to its effects while

students

who get rewards tend to do good for the rest of their life.

Hence

this

writer opines that

parents

and

teachers

should change from punishments to rewards if they really want to correct their children.
