Intrinsic & Extrinsic Motivation
From this module, I learned the difference between intrinsic motivation (finding meaning and enjoyment in learning) and extrinsic motivation (working for rewards or outcomes). I plan to apply this by helping students change their perception of the course—showing that everything we do is meaningful and that the true rewards come from within, such as confidence, knowledge, and personal growth, while still using clear expectations and incentives to keep them motivated.
