If you didn't arrive on time or didn't attend class on 3/2, you still have the opportunity to earn up to
10 points extra credit. This is completely voluntary, meaning you will not be penalized if you choose
not to write/submit anything. Your objective is to write a 2-page (double spaced) paper explaining
this additional reward system in the context of the Kohn article. Are college students more similar
to blue-collar workers where incentive plans work? Are college students more similar to white-collar
workers, where incentive plans don't work? To properly explain this, specifically identify and discuss
at least one of the six points from the six-point framework that examines the true cost of incentive
plans. Is this design similar to a standard pay-for-performance incentive plan? Explain. And do you
think the nature of this extra credit opportunity would have a positive or negative impact on the rest
of the class arriving to class on time? Explain.
