Yearbook Publishing Deadlines: Motivating Students
October 11th, 2008
Yearbook publishing deadlines are the bane of many an editor. However, if you know how to stimulate and motivate your students, you`ll be able to ensure that they finish up ahead of schedule.
Making it into a competition works if you have some competitive kids in your class. Offer some prizes for the person who finishes their assignment first, for example.
However, not all students will be into a competition, so you can just offer rewards for certain behaviors. For example, when a student turns in their work a day early, they get a small prize, perhaps an extra credit. A week early and the prize is even bigger. You can set whatever will work as a prize for your students, depending on their age and interests.
Motivation goes a long way toward getting students to meet those yearbook publishing deadlines!
