4.2.4 Learning and Cognition Notes
Key Ideas
Motivation is highly associated with learning.
Are we motivated to learn through an innate desire or due to external rewards?
Studies have shown that the more extrinsic motivators are tied to learning, the less intrinsically motivated people were to actually learn (Lepper et al., 1973)
According to self-determination theory, it is better for schools to have teachers that guide students rather than lecture them.
