Choice and Motivation
Let's try our own little experiment and see how it impacts your motivation!
In this exercise you will have three choices related to your exploration of this topic. You may select from the following options:
- Read several research articles provided for you about motivation and be ready to comment on your connections.
- Watch Daniel Pink's video on motivation and the business model. Relate his key points to education and how they intersect. Predict how the parallels will impact your online course.
- Find resources online or in the library about motivation. Share common elements with participants.
In any case, your job is to collect evidence on the value of intrinsic motivation. You will also be asked to talk about the impact of choice in this exercise and how it affected you.
