Emotions and cognition have long been treated as separate processes in psychology. Emotions were considered a distractor of rational processes, and it was endeavoured, especially at school, to reduce the influence of emotions to the lowest level possible. However, the contemporary research in the field of neurobiology and psychology states the complete opposite - that emotions and cognition are inextricably bound. Every kind of learning has an emotional grounding, while the emotional processes are necessary in order to utilise any kind of knowledge in everyday life. The first part of the current paper provides an overview of the studies dealing with the influence of emotions on the learning process, perception, attention, memory, critical thinking and motivation. In the second part of the paper, we speak about emotions in the educational context, and in the third about the implications of the studies dealing with emotions for education. The new insights into the relation between the emotional and cognitive processes inevitably have a bearing on the process of teaching and learning, as well as on teacher education. It is necessary to raise teachers? awareness of the importance of emotions in education and the consequent professional commitments and tasks as early as in the stage of pre-service education.

ABSTRACT Teaching and learning in higher education is occurring, unavoidably, within the broader civic context of today’s extraordinarily polarizing political times. We seek to help students situate themselves with respect to and, above all, thoughtfully assess others’ as well as their own perspectives on issues of profound contention, without contributing to exacerbated polarization ourselves. Specifically, we offer students in our first-year exploratory political science course a vital tool—critical rigor—for navigating but not being inundated by the storm. This article discusses our experiences in teaching the course titled, “The Worlds of Politics,” as we attempt to help students deeply engage in cognitive processes of critical thinking and analysis, without undue infringement from their own—and least of all our own—personal political biases. Our focal learning objective is the cultivation of critical-thinking skills that promote students’ drawing of distinctions between advocacy and analysis, as well as their discerning civic engagement.

The results of the study in cycles 1-3 said that the students' ability in speaking through the communicative-integrative approach had a significant increase. This increase can be seen based on the average value obtained when students carry out the teaching and learning process with the material continuing the story. In the first cycle, the number of students who told stories was 30 students with 70.55%. In the second cycle, 37 students who told stories had increased by 73.46%. In the third cycle, the number of students who told stories was 39 students with a percentage of 83.67%increased by 9.89%. The increase in speaking ability also increases with the increase in the average student activity during learning. The average student activity in cycle I was 65.30%. Student activity in cycle II had an increase of 9.48%, which was 75.77%, and activity in cycle III was 89.90%, which was an increase of 11, 65% of the average activity in cycle II.

Observation Process

Nowadays, every teaching and learning process is supposed to apply a student-centered concept in which the pupils are the center of the process, and they are encouraged to participate actively in the process. Therefore, all education levels have implemented this concept, including the university level. Unfortunately, many pupils are still passive during the teaching process. This phenomenon also appears in the English Language Teaching Department of Universitas Nahdlatul Ulama Purwokerto. The low participation of the students happens in all classes, including grammar class. Based on the pre-observation process in a grammar class, the average score of student participation was only 58.82%. From seven categories of student participation, two indicators were still 0% called asking a question and giving constructive or positive comments to the teacher or other students. There was also one category that only achieved 41.18%. Besides, the atmosphere was not conducive since some students talked to their classmates and looked quite bored. Based on this condition, the researchers decided to do action research. After doing a literature study, we agreed to use literary works to overcome the problem. The research was done in one cycle that consisted of three meetings. The instruments used for collecting the data were an observation sheet of student participation and a teacher observation sheet. The data gathered were analyzed using simple statistics like percentage and average score, then the analysis presented through diagram and words. The literary works used in this study were a short story, a film script, and a novel. This action research is successful if the percentage of student involvement can achieve 65%.  The result reveals that student participation was getting better after the implementation of literary works in the teaching and learning process. In the first action, the average percentage was 69.29 %, then it became 75.89% in the second meeting. In the third act, the student involvement achieved 78.15%. The most impressive finding appeared in the third meeting. Three students asked questions. Asking questions as one of the indicators of participation did not appear in the first and the second meeting. The atmosphere was getting conducive since the implementation of the literary works in the grammar class. In short, this action research is successful in boosting student involvement in grammar class.

In the past few decades, knowledge of human learning and development has proliferated rapidly (Darling-Hammond et al., 2020; National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, 2018). New insights come from multiple fields, including neuroscience and biology, sociology, psychology, developmental science, and learning sciences, as well as applied educational research. As a whole, this growing body of research makes clear that children’s learning and development are shaped by interactions among environmental factors, relationships, and learning opportunities, along with internal cognitive, psychological, physical, social, and emotional processes (Darling-Hammond et al., 2020). In 2019, the Woodrow Wilson Graduate School of Teaching and Learning (WWGSTL) and MIT’s Playful Journey Lab undertook a project with the goal of incorporating SoLD throughout the teacher education program. In this paper, we detail the steps we have taken so far, as well as those we plan to take in the future, to achieve our ultimate vision of teacher education grounded in SoLD.
