Rewards and Punishments

ACTIVITY 1     Extrinsic Motivation Reflection

Step 1

Take a large sheet of paper and make three columns:

Familiy Life | School / Educational Life | Organizational / Work Life

Review how extrinsic motivation was used to make you act (or stop you from acting) in the three areas of family life, school/educational life, and organizational/work life.

Step 2

Reflect and remember these experiences as you write about them. You may feel upset or angry.

Get into groups of 3-4 and share some of your experiences. Continue to look more broadly at your life and see how much your own freedom has been compromised.
