 Woof! My name is Jack Russell. I am a dog and a Wikiversity mascot. I am pretty new around Wikiversity. Perhaps we can learn together! Tail wag...

Motivation and emotion
Hi. Welcome to the unit and to Wikiversity! I look forward to learning with you and I hope you find the topic and the unit rewarding. Please feel free to let me know if you have any suggestions or would like help at any point along the way. Sincerely, James Neill, -- Jtneill - Talk - c 12:47, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Nice work learning wiki already, Matt - great user page! Will get back to you about your book chapter topic soon. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 11:16, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Online social networking
That's great that you're signed up and underway. It is possible to tackle this topic from motivational perspective (what draws people into or pushes them away from online social networking) or from an emotional perspective (what emotional precursors, experiences, and consequences are there for using OSN) - or perhaps both. Happy to discuss further, plus I have some resources from grad students working in this area which I can share. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 22:11, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

==Hey Matt. Thanks for the message. I sent a brief response but I think I sent it to the wrong place i.e. My User Talk page. Oh well, we live and learn. AlexAlexMC 23:35, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Hi Matt. Like your page setup. Just a heads up from the tutes - get your head around Motivational and Emotional states associated with Hormones and Neurotransmitters, and M&E states associated with brain structure, Avoidance oriented, Approach oriented and Arousal oriented i.e. I reckon they will figure in upcoming quizzes.
