Modules 29 & 30 Notes
Module 29
Summary
Module 29 of unit 6 discusses further upon learning and introduces the concept of motivation. Something I found very interesting in this module is the differences between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, which is basically performing a behavior for a reward versus performing a behavior for it's own sake.
