THE APPLICATION OF REWARD AND PUNISHMENT IN EDUCATION FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL AT “SAHARA EDUCATION”

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of rewards and punishments during education on Saharan-educated students. A descriptive observational approach was used in this study. Since Sahara's education is private, the research location was set up in the dormitory itself. This study showed that the use of rewards and punishments, when done correctly and appropriately, impacts levels of discipline and student motivation. In learning, teachers use reward and punishment methods to encourage greater obedience and discipline in student learning. The role of the teacher has a great influence on the influence of the students. Rewards can come from instilling good values ​​that come from habituation and appreciation for positivity. However, if the child does something negative, the teacher will punish the student accordingly. The purpose of punishment is to keep the child from repeating the prohibited act. Teachers warn students not to repeat the same behavior. Teachers reward students by giving prizes for their positive behavior. The purpose of this award is to empower children to become more active in their pursuit of better learning and success. Teachers punish students for violations and mistakes. Punishment makes students regret their mistakes. Based on this research, suggestions can be made for teachers to become more creative and innovative, and to create new forms of rewards and punishments that can be further developed. Students are expected to be disciplined and to study diligently, regardless of reward or punishment.
