I have often wondered if small gifts or even food/candy could come across as condescending or insulting to the adult learner? My contention is that if we use these type of motivators, present it light heartedly, perhaps by saying "let's take a break and have some fun with food!" What do you guys think? I also wonder if what it says about a student if they are not intrinsically motivated? It seems to me that more successful students are intrinsically motivated?
