Encouraging class participation is absolutely essential to building a class community and engaging learners. In 33 years of teaching, I have found that when a student raises their hand and answers a question, giving them a piece of candy for their effort is a token of thanks and appreciation. Along with a smile, a piece of candy helps build confidence and educational risk taking in the students. It's a simple gesture that has powerful positive implications. By encouraging class participation with a piece of candy, you are teaching the students that you value their thoughts, that you truly want them to have a voice.
