MODULE 15 POST 2
Although this form of punishment is not ideal, it is effective. If people are in fear of a punishment, they will avoid that punishment by working hard. In my classroom, the INTRINSIC reward is the pleasure of performing...generally, no extrinsic rewards are necessary...unless one considers winning a competition an extrinsic reward, which I think would be valid. Performing is generally the only reward one needs and not performing is the only potential punishment.

I totally looked at this ad a completely different way. I looked at the ad as being a form of motivating young football players to wear reebok and do well in sports. I looked at it this way because Terry the football player is seen multiple times peforming great tackles in the office, therefore little football players should be extrinsically motivated to wear reebok and perform amazing tackles like Terry as well. I didn't even think about the ad as you did.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Stephanie. This ultimately was an advertisement, so the point wasn't to show what it takes to get employees to work better in the office. It was subconsciously high-jacking the emotions of the sport consumer watching the commercial to where they think that buying those brand shoes will make you perform better and be more productive.
