PLN 15

I read "Schools would be great if it weren't for the Kids" by Alfie Kohn. It talked a lot about what motivaties a student to do certain things. It said that if students are given an incentive for doing something, they will be more motivated to do it. This matters to the world because life won't always give us incentives for doing work so we might as well try not being so lazy as to need an incentive for doing a feat. This matters to me because if subconciously I have the same dismal tendencies, I should work on doing great things with out eraning an incentive for them. This matters to education because this bad tendecy will lead to a lot of laziness in the education department in our society.
