Reinforcing Effort and Providing Recognition
Enhances students understanding of the
relationship between effort and achievement

• Set up a system to make students aware of their
  levels in SMe. Periodically review and let each
  one know where they stand. Show growth over time
  with one of the gains reports.
• Personalize recognition with certificates or
  verbal praise. Use last session report to
  announce all students that scored 70 or above,
  etc.

  Works by R. J. Marzano, D. J. Pickering, and J.
