Should I get some reward by handing in my homework early? What's gonna be the consequences if one day the school announces that: From now on, any student who can hand in their homework 2 days before the due time can get 0.5 extra credit.
It can be inferred that the president of the school thinks that: Give them the incentives. These credit chasers will certainly be more serious about their homework.They will spend more time reviewing courses to finish homework earlier rather than hanging out to do stupid things like dancing or singing. They will get better score and the school will have a better reputation.
Well,maybe the students will really hand in their homework earlier, but will they have a better understanding of the courses? Or will they really spend more time on study?
A possible scenario is that the quality of the homework sucks. Students may hand in the homework so quickly that they don't revise of proofread before submission.Some students may just copy and plagiarize. Some students may even think that: I can get extra credit even though I may not get all the answers right, so what's the point of ruminating the difficult problems?Besides, I can have more time socializing with friends.
Well, the outcome may be that the quality of academic performances decreases, student get more utilitarian and don't try hard in study.
Good intention may not lead to good consequences.
