5 Positive Impacts of Recognizing Student Achievement

Recognizing your students’ achievements has amazing outcomes. When you recognize individual student achievements with a tangible award, they will all feel appreciated and motivated to continue to work hard in the classroom.

Awarding Good Behavior

Awarding good behavior sets the foundation for your classroom and how your students should act. When students follow the rules of the classroom, you create a safe learning environment where students can learn without distractions. Award each outstanding student with a pin that they can show off in the classroom with pride.

Make Students Feel Appreciated

Recognizing your students’ achievements will let them know that you see their efforts and are proud of their achievements. An appreciated student won’t give up on their work and will feel like doing something that matters. Handing them a certificate that you have customized to be specific to that student is the perfect recognition gift. 

Encourage Student Pride

When students have something they can be proud of, it shows in the way they act. Awarding students with trophies and plaques is a great way for them to feel a sense of pride. They’ll be able to show off their awards to their friends and family, or hang them up in their rooms. The pride that your students will feel in school will continue to move them in the right direction.

Recognition is a great way to keep students motivated any time of year. When you introduce certificates, pins, trophies, and lanyards that can be awarded for different achievements it will motivate your students to work harder. This motivation will provide the drive your students need to excel in their studies.

Happy Students

Students that are successful with their studies are happy. By recognizing your students’ achievements, you are encouraging them to continue to work hard and be productive. When you reward your students you’ll make them feel appreciated and happy.

Corporate Award Trophies Help Your Business Celebrate Milestones

Filed under: Employee Recognition Ideas — Tags: — PDWriter @ 8:00 am

During a company’s growth, there are lots of times when it reaches a certain level. That first big sale, breaking sales records, reaching new production levels are just a few of the milestones that are well worth celebrating. Marking those milestones with an award trophy gives the company a way to visually keep track of where it’s been and gives new goals to reach.

There are all kinds of awards trophies available that are suitable for every kind of milestone. From inexpensive acrylic awards in the shape of the number 1 which can be etched to commemorate the first year of business all the way through lead crystal championship cups to celebrate some milestone which is truly spectacular like a million dollar sale.

Most awards are inexpensive. Acrylic awards cost in the $10 range but having them etched and mounted by an award company (usually done with a laser engraver) will generally push the cost into the $20 range. Many companies can take online orders and some even offer the capability for you to do the design and set-up online saving costs. There are glass awards available as well. They usually push into the $50 to $100 range depending on the size and type of glass used, but make for very nice awards.

Engraving them with the milestone to be honored can either be done on a plate to be affixed to the base of the award or on the plaque or on the side of the trophy itself. This is usually handled by a trophy company on an engraving machine and makes for a very nice award.

Celebrating milestones for your company is important. Not only does it mark an important occasion in the company’s growth, but everyone in the company can look at the trophy or award and know that they had a part in making that happen. An employee that’s proud of their company and their part in it means a lot. It can even mean more than a raise or bonus even, because employees want to be able to see that companies appreciate their efforts. Being able to mark milestones with a tangible award gives all the employees a visible vote of appreciation.
