week 7 post 1: encouraged intrinsic motivation
encouraged
-Intrinsic motivation refers to behavior that is driven by internal rewards---> the motivation to engage in a behavior arises from within the individual because it is naturally satisfying to the person.
> This contrasts with extrinsic motivation, which involves engaging in a behavior in order to earn external rewards or avoid punishment.
- Extrinsic motivation is a type of operant conditioning, which is a form of behavior modification.
It uses rewards or punishments to increase or decrease the likelihood of specific behaviors recurring.
>Being paid to do a job is an example of extrinsic motivation.
* Educators can help prevent students from becoming extrinsically motivated by choosing intrinsic rewards.
* The positive effects of gamification occur more when teachers prioritize intrinsic motivation as they plan learning activities.
