Our Think Tank online magazine represents 21st century learning. Just as you might come across an interesting video on the Internet, click links to read more about it, and then discuss it with colleagues, our Think Tanks work that way too. Each issue starts with a media broadcast, such as a TED Talk on the brain science topic featured in the issue. This is followed by a Think Tank of teachers and researchers writing more about the topic and how it applies to the language classroom. The final Plus section includes book reviews, reader spotlights, and other special contributions.
A long, long time ago in our earliest days as a publication, we covered the topic of Emotion in our May 2018 issue. However, a subject as complex as emotion can’t be fully covered in a single issue! Let’s take a fresh look at the role of emotion in the classroom and its impact on student learning.
“[W]e have already evolved complex and powerful systems for detecting and prioritizing that which is vital. They are the emotions, and they deserve to be at the top of your pedagogical tool kit.” – Sarah Rose Cavanagh
