| مستخلص: | Students may not always be intrinsically motivated to complete learning activities in our courses. For these instances, we suggest taking advantage of heuristics, discovered through behavioral economics research, as one way to nudge students toward task completion. To date, most educational applications of behavioral economics' heuristics use grades or points as the "currency." We propose that time and effort may be additional currencies to employ when making use of the heuristics of loss aversion, goal framing, attribute framing, and anchoring. However, educational research first needs to be conducted to determine if using heuristics with these currencies is effective. |
