You improve what you measure. Is points what you want to measure?
- bartolo 14y agoI don’t understand your question clearly, but the idea is to incentivize children to “earn” points after completing tasks, so you are giving value to their “work” with points that they can exchange for rewards. If I would give a “learning objective” could be to teach children to “work” for the things that they want and don’t take everything for granted.
- jvvlimme 14y agoI think what is meant if there will be something to reward the kids when they do something by themselves and not only by doing the requested chores. Example: Kid cleans up his room without it being asked. Will there be an ability to award points even without a task being created.
- bartolo 14y agoYes. They can proposed new tasks even if it is already done and the parents sould accepted it and set the amount of points.
