  • I think getting a heavier workload is more challenging than getting a new boss for a few reasons. First of all, If my workload is heavy, I might have to stay at work longer. To be specific, I would have trouble staying focused, and I couldn't do them fast enough to finish them on time. This means that I would have less time to spend with my family or friends. Secondly, a heavier workload would stress me out more. For example, when I have more work to do, I become responsible for more things. As a result, I need to worry about many things at once. and that makes me tried and anxious. Therefore,....

Q(hard) What are the disadvantages of motivating elementary school students by giving them monetary rewards?

  • monetary rewards : 금전적 보상

이유 :

  • 동기부여가 무엇인지에 대한 잘못된 개념을 줌 -> 학생들은 그들의 윤리에 근거하여 옳은 일을 하는 방법을 배워야함
    • gives them the wrong idea about what motivation is
    • -> students need to learn how to do the right thing based on their morals.
  • 금전적 보상이 모든 문제의 해결책이라고 생각할 수 있음 -> 다른 사람들에게 돈을 주면서 문제를 해결하려고 할 수 있다.
    • may think monetary rewards are the best solution to all problems.
    • -> may try to solve all problems by giving other people money
  • I think that there are some disadvantages of motivating elementary school students by giving them money as a reward. First of all, giving money to young students to motivate them gives them the wrong idea about what motivation is. To be specific, students need to learn how to do the right thing based on their morals, (not because they will get a reward for doing it.) Secondly, young students may think monetary rewards are the best solution to all problems. For example, when they grow up, they may try to solve problems by giving other people money. Therefore, I think these are some disadvantages of giving monetary rewards to elementary students to motivate them.
