"My readers constantly amaze me. A great conversation ensued on my recent post: “Badges vs. curiosity: What should motivate students?” They engaged in a great sharing of viewpoints from both sides of the intrinsic/extrinsic motivation spectrum. The best way to sum up everyone’s input was that both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation have their place in education." Via EDTECH@UTRGV, Mark E. Deschaine, PhD

How Google Impacts The Way Students Think.
by Terry Heick It’s always revealing to watch learners research. When trying to understand complex questions often as part of multi-step projects, they often simply “Google it.” Why do people migrate? Google it. Where does inspiration come from? Google it. How do different cultures view humanity differently? Google it.

Have you ever wondered where the large green button on a photocopier came from? You might assume it was a design or engineering decision made early on in the development of the photocopier. In fact, it emerged as the result of an ethnographic study of office workers using photocopiers and their struggles in getting them to do what they wanted. The employment of anthropologists (those who study the science of humanity) to address this problem helped turn what was fast becoming an embarrassingly poor user experience into a simple and elegant solution. So elegant, in fact, my question probably felt like a very strange one indeed!

Almost 800 business, engineering, education, and health services students completed a fairly typical plagiarism survey. They were asked how strongly they agreed with a statement defining plagiarism as copying text and inserting it in a paper without citing the source. They were asked how often they engaged in this specific behavior. As in many other survey studies, 75 percent of these students agreed or strongly agreed that copying text without referencing it was plagiarism. Eighty-one percent said that the behavior should result in strong punishment, and 84 percent said that they never or rarely engaged in this practice. None of those results are new or particularly surprising.

2012’s three editions of Inform brought together a wide variety of stories designed to focus on the issues that readers say matter most. You asked for stories on tools and techniques to help you do more with less as budget cuts bite harder. You also encouraged us to focus on the crucial issues of enhancing the student experience and student engagement as they become paying customers and realise that they are in the driving seat when it comes to demanding value.
