Emotion In Teacher Education –From Theory To Practice
The present symposium aims to highlight the role of Emotion in Education.In recent years, Emotion has gained increasing attention in the study of educators'professional development, at least in part, because teaching is an emotional practice in general ( Oplatka,2017; Day,2012) and in particular within inclusive teaching .Therefore, the purpose of this symposium is to ponder on several emotional aspects in Teacher Education especially facing issues of inclusion in our era.
Researchers are invited to present a variety of perceptives dealing with the notion of emotion leading towards deepening our understanding from theory to practice.Lectures will include programmes for the development of Emotional Intelligence amongst educators, problems of objective measurements of emotions (Pekrun et all, 2011, Bradley &Lang, 1994)as well as the personal emotional experience of class among students as well as psychological parameters of class efficiency(Ranđelović, 2017). Among other sub-topics, it will discuss relationship between the characteristic learning styles of learners and their emotions in class(Ranđelović, 2012).
Background
During the past ten years, there has been an increase in the number of scholars investigating emotions in educational contexts. Journals publish high level of emotion research leading to growing impact on society in general and as a response for including children with special educational needs (SEN). This increased academic interest in the role of emotion in education opened the understanding that teacher's role activities are embedded in varied cognitive, emotional and behavioral aspects, which are inter-connected in any analysis of the teacher'spractice (Allender&Allender,2008).
Findings indicate that emotions impact students' and teachers' interaction, performance, and personal professional development, hence emotions are of significance for educational institutions and of society at large.Therefore, researchers suggest that multiple emotions in both students and teachers should be considered when reflecting on educational problems which are patterned in complex ways within individuals, and the socio historical context. Other issues studied pose challenging questions concerning the development of teachers’awareness and ways of dealing with emotions in teaching in the mainstream while integrating students with SEN ( Hargreaves, 2004 ) and refugee (Sullivan & Simonson, 2016). In this light, there is a growing interest in developing standardized instruments which will give a realistic picture of emotional outcomes (Pekrun et all, 2011)on class by integrating emotional aspects for assessing affective and effective teaching.
This symposium calls researchers to expose us to their studies on Emotion in Teachers Education by integrating variety fields of knowledge. Finally, we will discuss with the presenters questions from the audience.
