I just found out about the Whole Brain Teaching this summer and plan on using it this coming year. Within WBT there is a scoreboard. Oe side has a smiley face and the other side has a frowny face. When the majority of the class has followed a procedure, you put a tally on the smiley side. If a rule is not followed a tally goes on the other side. I read that the rule is to never let the number of tallies go +\- 3 for either side. Students work harder when it's "close".
I don't know too much about it, but this is what I gather from just reading a little part of the book.
