I’m not sure that’s true once you limit it to adult classes (far more likely to be taking the occasional class for fun), and particularly in the case of an art class.
A “class for fun” implies that grade shouldn’t matter to the participants, so, allegedly, the two different grading schemes wouldn’t affect the participants’ behavior.
But things (such as motivation) change as a person who did pottery for fun at home, goes to do pottery for fun in a class, don’t they?
I would say the majority of classes are signed up for because they’re easy or part of required credits for a program.
