Should students get incentives for charity? That depends on how a person thinks about it. Students should give to charity, just out of kindness. Teachers should make a decision on to give extra credit, but she shouldn’t tell her students that. Students should receive incentive, only if the students know nothing about it.
If the students knew they were getting incentives, they wouldn’t care about the cause of charity. Students should want to help out with charities and support charities. Teachers, who tell the students about the incentives, change how the students think. All the students would care about would be the incentive.
Teachers should only give incentives, secretly. It allows the students to do something nice. Letting the students know that they are going to get something teaches the wrong moral. If the students get the incentives after they donate, it teaches good morals, because they earn what they get.
My mother told me a saying. “Do something nice and then get the prize, do not do it for the prize or it will be filthy.” I go by this rule all the time. With charity, I would give everything I could and would not care about the prize. I do it to feel good and to know I might have changed someone’s life. So, if students could learn to give and then get, they would feel a lot better.
Students should learn to not be selfish. They should do something for the cause and not for the prize. Teachers can and should give incentives to those who really donate, not just to get the kids to bring in things. Teachers should only give secretly, so the students would just do it for the incentive.
