EMOTION The word emotion derived from a Latin word Emovere which means stirred up or to excite in English. Emotions are conscious mental reactions (such as anger or fear) subjectively experienced as strong feelings usually directed toward a specific object and typically accompanied by physiological and behavioural changes in the body.
Characteristics of Emotion There are 4 (four) characteristics of emotion. These are: 1) Physiological arousal, 2) subjective feelings, 3) Cognitive process and 4) Behavioural changes
Role of emotion in education Emotions and learning are inseparable. Emotions can both enhance and interfere with learning depending on which ones are driving or colouring the experience. Emotions can also be contagious, with strong positive or negative emotional states infecting others in the learning environment. Whether in a face-to-face or online environment, the emotional states of learners and teachers can influence one another. Emotions are inherently linked to and influence cognitive skills such as attention, memory, executive function, decision-making, critical thinking, problem-solving and regulation.
Role of emotion in education Positive learning emotions include interest, curiosity, wonder, passion, creativity, engagement and joy. These activate the reward system of the brain, make the experience desirable, and aid in focus and attention. Positive emotional states can enable students to broaden their perspective, see alternatives, persist through challenges and respond effectively to criticism and failure.
