if they’re caught cheating, they won’t get an A. If they cheat and don’t get caught they’re not likely to turn themselves in. I don’t have a problem with gaming the system, if it’s done within the rules, which is what i consider gaming the system. why shouldn’tone be rewarded for properly gaming the system?
Also–how is money different from a ‘reward” ata nite at sizzler, or even praise? Theya re just varying forms of motivators. Does the lucre somehow contaminate the purity of the mission? if so, is there any purity tot he type of learning that actually goes on — stacks ofmeaningless homework, etc…maybe i need to pay more…
