>took a college calculus course last spring with online homework>had rough life circumstances that semester, put off the majority of my hw assignments until three weeks before finals>finally sat down to catch up with the rest of my assignments, noticed an icon at the bottom of my screen>"My Achievements">there was only one, and it was for completing the "first assignment", which was an extra credit tutorial at the beginning of the semester>spent two whole days blazing through the rest of my hw assignments so I could begin studying for the final exam>looked again at the achievements section, loaded with all sorts of fake "awards" just for doing what was asked of me by not failing the courseDo people actually feel "awarded" by achievements? They seem very empty to me.
