This book raises the question of whether or not educators can
promote intrinsic motivation among college students when they seem
overwhelmingly focused on grades. Indeed, can there be life beyond
grades? The answer is 'Yes'. A love of learning can coexist, even
thrive, in the face of competing pressures from grades. Drawing on
recent, ground-breaking classroom research, the authors articulate
a new understanding of the causes of the stalemate between
intrinsic and external motivation, so that a reconciliation between
them can be achieved. Then the authors apply a powerful set of
motivational and pedagogical principles to lay out a step-by-step
blueprint for designing and teaching college courses that promote
intrinsic motivation as a primary educational goal in its own
right, above and beyond knowledge and skill acquisition. This
practical blueprint draws on authentic case study examples from a
variety of subject-matter disciplines.
