How can extrinsic rewards undermine motivation?
|
• Relying on extrinsic rewards can undermine motivation because when students become accustomed to getting extrinsic rewards for reading, they may begin reading solely or largely to get the extrinsic reward and actually discontinue reading when the extrinsic rewards are no longer available.

|
Explain Learned Helplessness
|
a long-term outcome of children’s repeatedly attributing failure in reading to forces that are beyond their control; children who exhibit learned helplessness in reading are apt to be nervous, withdrawn, and discouraged when they are faced with reading tasks; unlikely to be actively engaged in reading, to have goals and plans when they read, to monitor themselves when they are reading, or to check themselves after reading to see if they have accomplished their reading goal.
|
|
What is attribution theory?
|
deals with student motivation and engagement; deals with the perceptions of the causes of their successes and failures in learning; in deciding why they succeed or fail in reading tasks, students can attribute their performance to ability, effort, luck, the difficulty, or other causes; children who have repeatedly failed in reading attribute their failure to factors that are beyond their control and are likely to decide that there is no reason to try because there is nothing they can do about it.
