STEP 6 – DEVELOP CONTINUUM OF PROCEDURES FOR ENCOURAGING SW EXPECTATIONS
Acknowledging SW Expectations: Rationale
• To learn, humans require regular & frequent feedback on their actions
• Humans experience frequent feedback from others, self, & environment– Planned/unplanned– Desirable/undesirable
• W/o formal feedback to encourage desired behavior, other forms of feedback shape undesired behaviors
Are “Rewards” Dangerous?
“…our research team has conducted a series of reviews and analysis of (the reward) literature; our conclusion is that there is no inherent negative property of reward. Our analyses indicate that the argument against the use of rewards is an overgeneralization based on a narrow set of circumstances.”– Cameron, 2002
• Cameron & Pierce, 1994, 2002• Cameron, Banko & Pierce, 2001
Reinforcement Wisdom!
• “Knowing” or saying “know” does NOT mean “will do”
• Students “do more” when “doing works”…appropriate & inappropriate!
• Natural consequences are varied, unpredictable, undependable,…not always preventive
Why Develop aSchool-Wide Reward System?
Increases the likelihood that desired behaviors will be repeated
Focuses staff and student attention on desired behaviors
Fosters a positive school climate
Reduces the need for engaging in time consuming disciplinary measures
Acknowledge & Recognize
Predictable work environments are places where employees:
• Know what is expected• Have materials & equipment to do job correctly• Receive recognition each week for good work• Have supervisor who cares & pays attention• Receive encouragement to contribute & improve• Can identify person at work who is “best friend”• Feels mission of organization makes them feel like
their jobs are important• See people around them committed to doing good
job• Feel like they are learning new things• Have opportunity to do the job well (Buckingham & Coffman 2002, Gallup)
Rewarding Staff
Keeping staff motivated is just as important to the PBS process as motivating students
Utilize community resources and local businesses
Incentives for staff that have worked at other schools include:• After School Ice Cream Social• Leave 5min. Early pass• Special Parking Spots• Recognition at faculty meetings
Reward System Guidelines
Keep it simpleProvide staff with opportunities to
recognize students in common areas who are not in their classes
Include information and encouraging messages on daily announcements
Rewards should target 85-95% of students
Brainstorm Staff rewards too!
