My kid would have grabbed the snack out of the experimenter’s hands.

If you're on zoom and don't have the bandwidth for tracking down buddies, feel free to share thoughts in the open chat or let it percolate on your own

Hi Jesse! Thanks for the expectancy value framework. Can you talk a little further on attainment focus - I suppose a portion of this is intrinsic and a portion (Larger?) is extrinsic.

These intitial examples certainly highlight the way our learners view utility and use of their time and effort (highly!)

So many blurry lines in ed psych :-)

sherry -Wouldn't want it any other way!

I find that every time we try to draw very clear lines quickly...it's wrong somehow.

Although these examples seem a little more distinct!

Really grasping the differences between the correlated intrinsic and attainment aspects is tough!

Risk/cost v reward!

cost, the amount of effort put in is linked to the importance of the course, pass/fail versus graded

Also, remember a moment or thought doesn't have to reflect just one aspect

Thanks, Jesse. Well done, as always. Thank you, everyone. I'm off to my son's end of year celebration at his school. Have a great day.

Bye Stacie!

Someday I will write a piece on how everything we do is viewed through risk/benefit lens! In some ways we are still stimulus/response at heart

Second set of quotes - My takeaway was that for some students, grades might be tied to attainment (Identify), utility (need good grades for internship) or cost (not doing well in graded course could hurt my future plans). For students who don't feel this way about grades, their main driver might be intrinsic.

Students may use grades as a measure of attainment and they add to cost.

We were thinking about how important it is to help the students understand their own motivations for what they do. This would be a great activity for them to do in orientation and periodically as well.

sorry :-)

Good point Sherry. Funny, I see these comments as totally cost versus benefit.

Must be just where my head is at right now!

We also did not have class rank in the UK and my instructors had to get creative on ways to formulate a 'rank' for me to apply for internships in the USA, as that was required.

sounds attainment focused - how do I measure up?

it was actually a reflection of the learners perspective but thanks!

attainment = how do I measure up in my mind or others?

thanks, Jesse!

Thanks
