Rewards are a fantastic tool! They personalise the learning experience and add an element of fun. I've also found that they encourage students to set their own goals - which helps foster intrinsic motivation. When students are invested in the rewards system it takes some pressure off the teacher too, as the motivation piece is somewhat self-managed.

Rewards systems can be an excellent strategy to enhance intrinsic motivation and create a more personalised learning experience. If the students are invested in the system, it's a great way to cultivate an autonomous and engaged learning environment! I've found that it's beneficial to also incorporate a system of challenges or levels to work towards - this adds a sense of progression and keeps students engaged.
