"Do you think we should give monetary incentives to the KP2 students to motivate them to get better grades?"

Educational leaders these days are consistently challenged to find innovative ways to maximize learning outcomes for students whom facing a failing problem in their studies.  Some of the most recent approaches aimed at improving student achievement that has emerged in other colleges and universities systems involve paying students cash for a better grade. So now, MICET are starting to deliberate these approach to be implemented in here, MICET.

First thing first, I think that everyone in MICET are already noticed about the pulling back off the loan given by the sponsor towards KP2 student. This situation I strongly believe will encumbering students. Why not, the fees per semester for degree are nearly 7k and for diploma 4k++. For a student’s that came from a wealthy family, it is not such a biggies. But what happen for an average student?? So, in my opinion, I do believe in second chance. I do. For me, failing in studies is not wrong. What is been wrong is you don’t learn from the mistakes that been done. Besides, failure in study is not the end of everything, but actually the starts of something. Remember?? It is such a pity for students who once fall are not given his/her second chance to start to walk again. All of us did fall in life at least once right?

My theory :
[ Lack of self-confidence ] + [ No money ] = [ Pressure arose ]= | Quit in studies or maybe in Life!! |

The tension derived just creating pressure and that only making student losing their focus, and it is not helping though. It is just not the way of helping, isn’t it? Thus, holding a second chance could give a psychological impact on students and also parents. Besides, it is such a lost to MICET to giving up to these students and the sequence is, our country losing students in this field. It is interrelated, could you see that. One fact that rarely people realized is students with lack of theory is such an expert in technical work. For me, it is too wasteful if giving up too early to students with unpeeled ability. 

So, in conclusion I think that monetary incentives should be given  to KP2 students in order to helping  them “defying gravity’’ and start all over again.
