466Seeing this successFans began raising money before concerts that has gains of a hundred dollars or so. After seeing this success, a fan was recruited to make a website on which auctions could occur.rr407610Rachel Reese
5
567they raised 16,000This one event they made the most they ever had with $16,000, after that they had many other auctions and over the year they made $75,000. For Groban's next birthday donation they raised about $24,000 in one single event. Js175610Jenna Schmidt

667Clarke, Sooky, and MarkusClarke, Sooky, and Markus wanted to know how they could work closer with Groban, but Groban's lawyers weren't sure what to do with donations from fans because it has never been done before.kh864910Kimbralin Holcomb
7
767Eventually Grobans lawyersThe Josh Groban Foundation became a non-profit corporation that allowed the people to make any amount of money donations in Groban's name, and then the foundation would collect and disburse the results.al463311Alli Lepri

967By 2004 this groupAs the Grobanites grew, it caused the internal management issues to become more complex and after a year of discussion, the foundation formed their own nonprofit organization, Grobanites for Charity.sr677910Shelby Roades

1068The original birthdayThe Grobanites for Charity and the Josh Groban Foundation are unlike any other non profit organization because the organization formed first and acquired members before they raised money.eb048810Emily Brockmann

1168Further, their successOther charity groups have branched out of Grobanites such as, Grobanites for Africa, who strictly focus on raising money for African children.gg034410Gabriella Gullia

1269The important questionThe important question isn't where people found time to form the Groban Foundation, nor how they became a part of a coordinated group.gd111610Gary Dillabaugh III
12
1369The puzzling questionThe puzzling question is why did the women agree to raise the money in the first place and why would the Grobantes for Charity create a seperate entity when the Josh Gorban Foundation already exsisted?cs028510Chad Squires

1470In 1970 Edward DeciDeci performed a simple experiment based on a puzzle, a wooden cube divided into 7 smaller pieces, used to create a shape being seen from a drawing.cw042110Cassie Wolf
14
1570At the beginning of decemberThe subjects were told how the experiment worked and what to do with the 7 different pieces, they were told to take a break when he left the room, yet little did they know he was observing their behavior through a one way mirror.cw042110Cassie Wolff
15
1670While Deci was goneEven though the subjects of the experiment were free to choose their own activities, they spent on average a little over half of the 8 minutes to try and solve the puzzle.sk102610Shelby Kerwin
16
1771Deci then invitedWhen Deci invited subjects back for a second observation session he paid a portion of the students one dollar for every shape they were able to assemble. While being observed during their 8 minute break the students being paid showed far more interest in fitting the pieces together than the one whom were not paid. Going further when all of the subjects were not paid for the third observation session, the participants whom were paid before but no longer were shown to dedicate far less interest to solving the puzzle.eg552210Evan Gale
17
1872In psychological literatureA study where subjects are observed on their reasonings for taking part in activities. Whether they do so for the benefits of completing it or for a reward. These two types logistic reasonings are refereed to as intrinsic and extrinsic. Deci Soma is responsible for this experiment, he concluded that human action isn't additive.Aw966610Allison Wetzel
18
1972Receiving sufficient paymentReceiving payment can make people do things that they otherwise wouldn't want to do. But sometimes, extrinsic rewards can decrease intrinsic rewards, thus being paid for things that we like to do can cause us to forget that we enjoyed those things in the first place.ac248310Amanda Cullum
19
2072Other researchers..Voluntary engagement is called “free choice” tests but, if someone is watching are likely are they really to do what they really want to do. Deci’s Soma experiment concluded that human motivation is not completely addictive. Intrinsic is motivation is when the activity is the reward itself. Doing the experiment while still on break would be an example of this. Extrinsic motivation is when the reward is something outside the activity, not the activity itself. An example of this would be payment.cm489410ciara mackey
20
2173The idea thatPeople tend to behave differently when doing work for payment, but payment can crowd out other types of motivation. as157209Alicia Sproul
21
2274In 1994, Judy CameronJudy Cameron and David Pierce of the University of Alberta overlooked paid subjects and came to the conclusion there was no such crowding-out effect. In 1999 richard ryan disagreed and said that Cameron and Pierce forced the subjects to do tasks that the subjects had no interest in. Cameron and Pierce conducted the same research again in 2001 and ruled out the crowding-out effect and introduced the idea of extrinsic motivations. jw100410Josh Weyler

2475Deci's Framing of intrinsicGrobanites for charity takes none of the money that they raise to finance their own expenses. According to the American Institute of Philanthropy give a passing grade to philanthropies who take 40% of their earnings to pay for their finances while donating 60% to charity. However, charities that keep 15% of their income and give away 85% are deemed excellenteg552210Evan Gale

2776Similarly, Grobanites for charityGrobanites for Charity and the Josh Groban Foundation differ in many ways, the Groban foundation is just a small section on the JoshGroban.com its very clean and professional, unlike Grobanites for Charity site which was created by amateurs covered with hand-drawn hearts and colored tabs.nb402210Nicole Byrne

2977This effect is generalGeocities, Sites back in the early days, would allow people to have their personal web page where they were free to post any type of media they desired for other people’s viewing purposes. When the sites were released, Clay Shirky, who was working at a web design firm, was certain that Geocities would fail. He did not understand what person would want an amateur webpage when there were professionals designing sites on the web at the same time. am794610Andreea Muresan
29
3077I was rightPeople would rather create something on their own, even if it is of mediocre quality, than only be considered a consumer, which is why Geocities was so successful when it was created.hh026311Hailey Hess
30
3178Yochai BenklerHarvard Scholar Yocahi Benkler and NYU Philosopher Helen Nissenbaum wrote a paper in 2006 on systems that rely on voluntary contributions to operate in which they divided social motivations into two clusters, one around connectedness or membership and the other around sharing and generosity. js156511Justin Stemler

32
3379social forms of organizationSocial forms of organization on the internet are helpful to people because people "want and need to talk to others who are like them". The motivation to share is the driver; technology is the enabler.cs812211Carlee Smith

3680As an analogyWhat we see, hear, or read in the media is not always what things are really like in life. The media sometimes completely distorts what the picture really is ea777710Elena Allen
36
3780Markus's Grobanites for charityMarkus Grobanite's charity site isn't necessarily professionally "polished" but it gets the point across and is more or less inviting and personable for its viewers.hp232911Hannah Palmateer
37
3881It continues in that veinRefers to the "Thank You" portion of the Markus' Grobanites for Charity website thanks over 350 people by name and describes exactly what they did to enhance the Grobanite for Charity movement. eg552210Evan Gale
38
3981Any large effort requiresWhenever a large amount of work is done, people greatly appreciate recognition for their work. As shown in the excerpt of the "Thank You" page, people enjoy the idea of acknowledgement of their individual effort, rather than an overall recognition of the group. This in turn incentivises people to take on difficult and specific jobs and to work harder in them. ao067810Andres Obregon-Mantilla
39
4081Now, This paradeThis parade refers to the 350 names and descriptions of their involvement with the Grobanites for Charity movement. Since 2002 the Grobanites have raised more than a million dollars, and they've sent 100% of that to other charities. eg552210Evan Gale
40
4181Although the GrobanitesCharity sites have revolutionized since the Grobanites. Use to doing it by hand that thought of creative ways to take auction sites and turn them into donation ones. New applications such as "Causes" hosted by Facebook now make giving much easier. It also allows the level of communication to friends and friends of friends to help inform. Not just limited to Facebook, other sites such as DonorsChoose.com also use the method of online giving. mm105410Maxwell Miller
41
4282Many other sitesThere are numerous sites that allow people to donate their time, expertise and money for example Netsquad.org, Care2.com as well as Kiva.org who had to turn down money because they no longer needed anymore money to give loans to people in the developing world.nb402210Nicole Byrne
42
4382Amateurs are sometimesAmateurs are separated from professionals because amateurs do something from love and participate in groups through motivation because they really care about the issue or organization unlike professionals who require salaries.nb402210Nicole Byrne
43
4483As always, high hurdlesIt is more difficult for amateurs to compete in the charity game compared to professionals. Professionals have many more people to contribute to their cause and also have more resources to use. Amateurs who support one side of an issue are doing it for the love of it. High hurdles reduce the number of amateurs who can contribute. eg552210Evan Gale
44
4583What were seeingThe overall factors separating amateurs and professionals has been diminishing, while private modes of behavior and amateur modes of behavior are not really comparable at all. Today private organizations and other volunteer organizations are equally as accessible and social media has become an outlet for both amateurs and professionals to express their desires rather than limiting them.bs130810Bridget Stein
45
4684Back when coordinatingRecent tools, such as the internet, have made it possible for amateur groups to become larger, more organized, and more public just like professional groups.ar627810Alaina Redlin
46
4784The geographic rangeLiving in different geographic locations did not stop Julie Clarke, Valerie Sooky, and Meg Markus from creating the charity Grobanites. People collaborate all over the globe in a very effective way.es726610Evan Steele
47
4884We're used to the wordPeople are used to thinking of "global" as meaning "really big," because many aspects which are global tend to be larger than, for example, the same aspects at a national or local level. However, the main factor in globalization is more about scope, and not size.dz870710Daichi Zelley

5086If intrinsic motivations areBecause social media has created platform in which creating and sharing have a low cost, intrinsic motivation because people participated in these types of activities such as digital folk art or lolcats.am338510Arael Monroe
50
5186Digital folk artDigital folk art has been around almost as long as computers have and is still circulated today by email and other social tools.mm942710Mike Millikin
51
5287The spread of digital hobbiesDigital hobbies play a huge role in society and continues to evolve. In the 1970s people viewed some as pathetic if they built model trains while they were busy at home spending hours at home watching t.v.Es726610Evan Steele
52
5387Despite my teenage attitudehobbyists and crafters social motivations were less prominet to themselves because they simply want "dicovery cost", and the number of hobbyist and crafters has slowly decreased to to social capital and increased television watching.mm942710Mike Millikin
53
5487If the only thing ourThe fact that the level of self pleasure from social media has not been reached yet is because it rewards us by fulfilling our desires for membership and sharing. ms167710Massih Saheli

5588Broadcast mediaThe social media of today is connecting samll groups of people who share the same desires and making them feel as though they belong to a large group.rw232208Richard Wolfe
55
5688Social mediaAccess to the internet such as social media sites have allowed people to find others that are interested in the same things as them.kg392711Korrie Gundling
56
5788People who care passionatelyThis paragraph is saying that when your a part of a community it is hard to understand other peoples way of life. It is hard for people to look from the outside in especially when you feel so passionately about your own views. bc529810Brittney Cheatham
57
5889In a world of high discovertyIn a world of low discovery costs, people are able to find others with the same unique interests and are able to interact with one another, away from the masses of others who don't get it.sg158307Stuart Gair
58
5989Amateurs generally useAmateurs find it much easier to contact and connect to people who have similar interests to them through public access, like the Grobanites for Charity, these people create things not for the public but for people that are interested in the same thing as them. dd707710Devon Dunlap

6090Consider the denizensfanfiction.net is an example of online communities where people can come together and discuss and create stories of different universes and people. An example is going for ward with the story of Harry Potter. People come together and tell more stories focused around Harry Potters life. They can comment on this too. It is a given that when people visit this, they will read and comment.mw815910Matthew Winters
60
6190Like all communitiesIn the the world of fanfiction.com plagiarism is concern. The problem with communities like this are that people are not getting credit for the stories they make because some people copying lines and ideas from their stories. More writers are starting to add disclaimers to make sure their work is safe.mw815910Matthew Winters

62
6391The internal logicThe internal logic is the guidelines by which the fan fic community operates.Internal logic is broken down by right and wrong. Cassandra Claire was accused of profiteering which was benefiting from her own fan fic. Profiteering is looked down upon throughout the fan fic community. zs818310@ohio.eduZach Smith
63
6492Seen in this lightSeen in this light is the love of writing that the fan fic authors possess. Even though a court of law may say that they're in the fault, they know they're not in it for the money. They are only doing it for the the love of the story. Essentially the only victory the fan fic authors strive for.eg552210@ohio.eduEvan Gale

6592If you had a few spareIf you had a few minutes of spare time you would find yourself participating and observing in blogs, social networks, or bulletin boards. Social networks like these are considered the world of amateurs, Twitter and YouTube receive thousands of tweets and videos are uploaded a day.nb402210Nicole Byrne
65
6693When you see peopleSometimes we ask the question why is that person acting so strange? It could just be a certain behavior that we don't understand; people normally behave in a way that will be rewarding to them and make them feel attached to others. kb378610Kelsi Bullard

6793peoples intrinsic motivationsPeople gravitate towards things that they will benefit, they also act out when they are offered phony versions of participation.AC835110Anthony Cianciolo
67
6893Its hard to imaginePeople that voted on the people's magazine poll for the top 25 beautiful people in the world voted based on who they wanted to be not on who was actually beautiful.ac835110Anthony Cianciolo
68
6994or rather, once uponBy 1998, the world wide web offered many, many tools, and thus the group picked Hank people.com's most beautiful person.ac332310Anne Campolongo

7094Hank, the Angry Drunken DwarfHank the angry drunken dwarf name was Henry Joesph Nasiff Jr. He was a occasional guest on the Howard Stern Radio show, and from these appearances he became famous for his inebriated rage. He played this role for two years when the people poll launched his manner was compares to Dicaprio, or winslet which classified him as a very good actor if he was paired with those names.kt754110Kendall Triplett
70
7194Having to act on behalfWhen having to act on behalf of an authority one becomes less motivated. People do not want to listen to rules and orders so sometimes they will want to do the exact opposite of what they're told.ee929610Erin Eberhart
71
7295The lesson of HankDo not limit people to what they can do. Let them have their own motives and beliefs. Let people act on their desire, if you tell people what to do and how specifically to do it, they will more than likely revolt and will not do the task. However, if you let them freely put in their vote of whatever they will more than likely take you up on it. bb195711Brianna Buffington
72
7395We used to pursueBefore it was hard for amateurs to go after their interest in life because standards were to high. But now that the standards are lowering more people can go after what they want publicly. Cognitive Surplus gives us the tools that both enable and reward participation. bc529810Brittney Cheatham
