The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of , not the one interested only in getting learning learning, high grades. Sometimes homework is returned with brief written comments but without a grade. Even if a grade is not given, the student is responsible for learning the material assigned. When research is assigned, the professor expects the student to take it actively and to complete it with minimum guidance.

While such a goal would not arise out of hunger in
