DEVELOPING EMOTIONALLY COMPETENT TEACHERS - ROI...

Classrooms are emotional places  filled at different times with enjoyment  excitement  anger 
hurt and boredom. The teacher's skill in working with emotional information and in regulating
their own and their pupils' emotion impacts upon what and how pupils learn. But what emotional
competence do teachers need? Can they learn this in pre-service teacher education? And should
this kind of ability even be categorised as emotional skill  competence or intelligence? Given
recent policy initiatives in this area  these questions have become increasingly pressing. This
book focuses on how pre-service student teachers develop the competence to work in and with the
emotionally rich life of the classroom. Building on the concept of emotional intelligence  it
examines the skills used by student teachers in perceiving and regulating emotions  generating
particular emotional states to facilitate particular types of thinking  and understanding the
processes of emotional change in their classroom. Drawing on both qualitative and quantitative
data  it explores what pre-service teachers can be seen to have learned through an emotional
competence training programme and how this impacted upon their teaching.
