1. When have you been paid based on your performance, and how did this alter the way you approached your job (for the better and for the worse)?
2. Grades are partly intended to provide incentives for quality work. How do students strategically game grading systems in ways that might pervert this intent?
3. Is gaming unethical, or is it just rationally responding to the incentive system? Whose responsibility is it to stop gaming: the person who designs the incentive system, or the person who exploits it?
4. How do you draw the line between gaming and cheating?
