[quote=Anonymous]As a high schooler I was “instrinsically motivated” ... to get good grades. Not to dig deeper into subject matter or be curious. I sought extra credit opportunities solely as a way to boost my grades, mastered the art of studying just enough to get As, etc. Participated in lots of sports and extracurriculars in part out of interest but also because I knew I “should” be super involved to get into an excellent college. Looking back that is not at all what I hope for my own kids, because I would much prefer they find passions. [/quote]
