It is true that the question of whether to reward students with excellent academic results or those who showing their great improvements remains a source of controversy in education field. While a number of people believe that student achieving the highest grades deserve rewards, I would argue that praising students who achieve improvements is much more reasonable.
On the one hand, there are a variety of reasons why rewards should be given to students with excellent academic performance. Firstly, it could give highly studying competitive environment at school, seeing that students often desire to win prizes. At a consequence, school children could be encouraged to put their efforts into studying for high scores. Secondly, by adopting this approach, students who are outstanding could be given opportunities to nurture their abilities. My secondary school, for example, selects students with high grades for extra classes to develop their capabilities in order to take them to national competitions.
On the other hand, giving encouragement to those who make strides in their studies results is more favorable outcomes. The first reason is that it could give equal chances to every student to receive rewards, rather than only focus on the highest achievers. Instead of feeling disappointed when competing to their top classmates, students who are recognized for their efforts during semester will feel motivated if they are awarded for making significant progress. Another reason is that this form of recognition follows the holistic principle of learning, which is access to world knowledge, not just to gain high scores. Consequently, several common phenomena which occur when examinations approach, including pressure, anxiety or cheating, would be reduced.
In conclusion, although rewarding students with the greatest scores is advantageous in some extent, it seems to me that it would be better to give encouragement to those who have improved their level of performance,
