Taking others' assessments: How brave are your educators? - Dangerously Irrelevant
Tässä blogikirjoituksessa on hurja ja hieno idea: Jakaa koulussa tekemämme kokeet oman koulumme opettajille niin, ettei koealue ole oma opettamamme aihe. Kokeiden pitäminen ei välttämättä edistä oppimista. Onko opetettava sisältö todella tarpeellista ja oppivatko oppilaat niistä?

How Rewards Can Backfire and Reduce Motivation | PsyBlog
"Yet psychologists have long known that rewards are overrated. The carrot, of carrot-and-stick fame, is not as effective as we've been led to believe. Rewards work under some circumstances but sometimes they backfire. Spectacularly."

- As you can see the expected reward had decreased the amount of spontaneous interest the children took in drawing (and there was no statistically significant difference between the no reward and surprise reward group). So, those who had previously liked drawing were less motivated once they expected to be rewarded for the activity. In fact the expected reward reduced the amount of spontaneous drawing the children did by half. Not only this, but judges rated the pictures drawn by the children expecting a reward as less aesthetically pleasing.
- Rewards reduce intrinsic motivation
- In one study smokers who were rewarded for their efforts to quit did better at first but after three months fared worse than those given no rewards and no feedback (Curry et al., 1990). Indeed those given rewards even lied more about the amount they were smoking.
- tangible rewards tend to have a substantially negative effect on intrinsic motivation (...) Even when tangible rewards are offered as indicators of good performance, they typically decrease intrinsic motivation for interesting activities.
- This is why play can become work when we get paid. The person who previously enjoyed painting pictures, weaving baskets, playing the cello or even writing blog posts, suddenly finds the task tedious once money has become involved.
- When we do something for its own sake, because we enjoy it or because it fills some deep-seated desire, we are intrinsically motivated. On the other hand when we do something because we receive some reward, like a certificate or money, this is extrinsic motivation.
- Rewards have even been found to make people less creative and worse at problem-solving.
