Feedback is a critical component of the learning process and is essential to reinforce the effect of feedback with affective elements. Due to technological developments, providing automated feedback has become easy. Therefore, this study examined the effect of automated elaborated feedback provided with affective feedback on situational intrinsic…

On August 3rd, 2019, a racially-charged mass shooting occurred at Walmart in El Paso, TX that killed 23 people and injured another 23. Following the Walmart shooting, students in this borderland region wrote essays related to their experiences. We used the themes we identified to inform implications for teaching writing and composition for middle…

A video lecture instructor exhibiting positive emotion has been shown to induce similar emotions in students, improving the students' motivation and increasing their attention, thus improving their learning performance. However, little systematic research exists on which specific design features with regards to the instructor can induce such…

This study investigated participants' perceived attitudinal learning in language massive open online courses (LMOOCs). A mixed-method design was used to evaluate the attitudinal learning outcomes of 151 participants who completed the attitudinal learning questionnaire at the middle and end of the course, as well as 10 participants who participated…

Fostering accurate musical self-perceptions may be particularly challenging when developing singing technique, where self-assessment is complicated by the close physiological and emotional relationship between the performer and the body-instrument. The aim of the present study was to investigate how vocal students' beliefs in their performance…

The affective role is an integral aspect of the teacher's professional role, but has not received adequate scrutiny. The aim of this research was to conceptualise the construct of the affective role of the teacher (AfRT). In study 1, qualitative content analysis was employed to identify potential components of the AfRT from literature. Study 2…

Previous research works demonstrate that risk perception (RP) of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) may result in experiencing negative emotions. The current research sought to further appraise of whether perceived social support alleviated the negative impact of RP of COVID-19 on subjective well-being (SWB) among university students. A sum of…

Flipped learning is a constructivist methodology that uses various active learning strategies, drawing on the potential of digital technologies whenever possible. Several research studies have shown the many benefits that flipped learning can bring to students' learning process and their affective sphere, but studies in the specific area of…

Despite the importance of emotions in science education, research?on affect remains sparse. A promising direction is to explore the role of immersive visualisation in evoking affective responses. We investigate whether touch-based zooming interaction with a tabletop visualisation of the tree of life evokes various affective responses,…

Objective: The current study examined the unique predictive ability of tolerance of specific negative affective states in relation to frequency of past-month cannabis use and coping-oriented cannabis use motives. Participants: 416 undergraduates who reported past 30 day cannabis use (65.1% female; M[subscript age] = 19.46, SD = 2.56). Methods:…

The importance of affective states in learning has led many Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) to include students' affective states in their learner models. The adaptation and hence the benefits of an ITS can be improved by detecting and responding to students' affective states. In prior work, we have created and validated a theory-driven model…

The rise of anti-immigration arguments within the European Union (EU) poses significant challenges to our democratic existence. As such, the promotion of critical thinking (CT) for the development of a multicultural citizenship education has been underlined. Recent research also shows a close connection between emotions and cognition with positive…

Emotions are ubiquitous and permeate all aspects of human life, including language learning. However, little attention has been paid to emotions in the ELT curriculum, let alone in the design and implementation of conversations clubs. In this article, we share the qualitative results of a mixed-method study on students' emotions while…

Purpose: The study is an attempt to expand the knowledge about the psychological and behavioral aspects of Indian students studying abroad amidst fear of uncertainty and social unrest. Design/methodology/approach: The exploratory study is employed to seek a better and deeper understanding of the possible impact of the potential war on the student…

The learning environment is intertwined with affective learning and significantly influences the overall student learning experience. The authors introduce the concept of the meta-space, which they define as the dynamic spaces that exist between the traditional, formal containers in which learning typically occurs. Using qualitative and…
