Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

Management issues to consider are:
a . Students need to be taught how to manage their tokens so that they are out of the way but readily available when needed. Students need to be taught how to store them safely so that they are not stolen.
b. Preemptive measures should be taken to avoid counterfeiting and bootlegging. Select tokens that are not easily duplicated.
c. Some students may hoard tokens and never exchange them, while others may exchange too freely and be unable to save for high quality items. Encourage spending for hoarders, and do not allow students with fewer than the requisite number of tokens to exchange
