Toward a Balanced Approach to Reading Motivation: Resolving the Intrinsic-Extrinsic Rewards Debate
NA (site), NA (city),
Abstract:
Research shows that properly designed reward programs enhance intrinsic motivation by providing positive feedback about student achievement. Accelerated Reader itself is not a reading reward program; it is a progress-monitoring system that provides quantitative and qualitative information about student reading. Teachers and librarians can use this information in a variety of ways.
