This book was released on 2021 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classroom climate has an impact on students, and the teacher is the biggest contributing factor in how that climate is created. Teachers are expected to design a classroom climate that is positive and conducive to learning, fostered through meaningful interactions between and among the teacher and students. While positive classroom climate is essential for students, it is complex and difficult to achieve because of a multitude of variables that can go unseen. This research examined the relationship between classroom climate and emotional intelligence of 11 fourth-grade teachers in Garden School District. The mixed methods study includes quantitative data from both the district-wide school climate survey and the teacher emotional intelligence inventory. Additionally, interviews with both the teachers and the principals served to contextualize those findings. The findings of this study demonstrate that there is a relationship between teacher emotional intelligence and classroom climate in the subject classrooms. The competencies found in Goleman's Theory of Emotional Intelligence are strongly woven into the classroom climate. Based on the data collected, recommendations are made for the district to continue its work on improving classroom climate by promoting emotional intelligence understanding and development for teachers and students which includes providing opportunities for students to have voice and choice in their learning.
Download or read book Handbook of Classroom Management written by Carolyn M. Evertson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 1357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classroom management is a topic of enduring concern for teachers, administrators, and the public. It consistently ranks as the first or second most serious educational problem in the eyes of the general public, and beginning teachers consistently rank it as their most pressing concern during their early teaching years. Management problems continue to be a major cause of teacher burnout and job dissatisfaction. Strangely, despite this enduring concern on the part of educators and the public, few researchers have chosen to focus on classroom management or to identify themselves with this critical field. The Handbook of Classroom Management has four primary goals: 1) to clarify the term classroom management; 2) to demonstrate to scholars and practitioners that there is a distinct body of knowledge that directly addresses teachers’ managerial tasks; 3) to bring together disparate lines of research and encourage conversations across different areas of inquiry; and 4) to promote a vigorous agenda for future research in this area. To this end, 47 chapters have been organized into 10 sections, each chapter written by a recognized expert in that area. Cutting across the sections and chapters are the following themes: *First, positive teacher-student relationships are seen as the very core of effective classroom management. *Second, classroom management is viewed as a social and moral curriculum. *Third, external reward and punishment strategies are not seen as optimal for promoting academic and social-emotional growth and self-regulated behavior. *Fourth, to create orderly, productive environments teachers must take into account student characteristics such as age, developmental level, race, ethnicity, cultural background, socioeconomic status, and ableness. Like other research handbooks, the Handbook of Classroom Management provides an indispensable reference volume for scholars, teacher educators, in-service practitioners, and the academic libraries serving these audiences. It is also appropriate for graduate courses wholly or partly devoted to the study of classroom management.
Download or read book Exploring Teacher Emotional Intelligence and Its Impact on School Climate written by Cleion L. Morton and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers and administrators are struggling. They must do more with less. Children come to school from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. These issues, as well as numerous others, provoke emotions that run rampant--sometimes out of control and sometimes minimized to the point of being destructive. In turn, the school climate and learning environment is affected. Teachers need support to enhance their understanding of emotional intelligence (EI). Application of EI competencies can positively influence school climate. The purpose of this intrinsic case study was to understand the perceived impact of enhancing teacher knowledge and application of emotional intelligence on school climate. The study explored teacher emotional intelligence, school climate, and the intersection of the two. Emotional intelligence instruction and education were provided to the teacher research participants during the study to support their personal growth. This study provided an understanding of the impact of teacher emotional intelligence on school climate. Results indicated that teacher emotional intelligence can be developed or enhanced and that it does affect their perception of the school climate. The impact was reflected in greater teacher awareness, intentional application of EI strategies, recognition of the benefits of EI on school climate, acknowledgement of factors impeding EI and school climate, and an altered perception of their role in the school climate. The study revealed a continued need for emphasizing and enhancing teacher emotional intelligence as a means of improving school climate. Utilizing a model such as the Six Seconds Model for Emotional Intelligence proved worth the time and effort because it enhanced teacher EI and changed teacher perceptions of school climate. A need for additional time and continued EI training was also noted as a means for additional growth in a more positive school climate.

This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Establishing a student-centered classroom environment where learning puts students’ interests first is essential for middle school students to learn and thrive. Student success does not simply rely on instruction; it relies on external factors such as school and classroom climate, positive relationships with their teachers and other adults, and a strong sense of belonging with their peers. The young adolescent learner is at a turning point where the need for love, belonging, and acceptance is heightened. Research studies indicate that large percentages of students lack social-emotional competence and believe their teachers do not care about them. Social-emotional learning skills are vital for young adolescents, as are 21st century skills and competencies to prepare them for an information- and technology-driven world. Aligning Social-Emotional and 21st Century Learning in the Classroom: Emerging Research and Opportunities shows teachers practical ways to combine the skills that young adolescents need (social-emotional) and the 21st century skills that they learn to create a culture of success in their middle school classrooms. This book also provides examples of education technologies that teachers can use to promote 21st century learning in their classroom. Highlighting a wide range of topics such as communication skills, critical thinking, social media, and emotional intelligence, this book is crucial for teachers, school administrators, instructional designers, K-12 educators, curriculum developers, academicians, researchers, and students.

Download or read book The Relationship Between Teacher Emotional Intelligence and the Academic Progress of Urban Elementary School Students written by Danielle Grace Moreau Neves and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emotional intelligence is a comparatively new psychological concept that, in recent years, has been investigated in the field of education. While there is an abundance of research indicating that increased student emotional intelligence is positively correlated with various student outcomes, very few studies have investigated the relationship between teacher emotional intelligence and student outcomes. Given that students in urban communities often face numerous challenges that work to hinder their academic achievement, the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between teacher emotional intelligence and the academic progress of urban, elementary school students, as well as to investigate if parent income level and student grade level moderated that relationship. In an urban, public school district in Massachusetts, 16 teachers completed the Mayer Salovey Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test and student academic progress scores were calculated for 336 included students utilizing oral reading fluency percentile scores on the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBLES) assessment. Findings indicate that although there was a weak, yet positive correlation between teacher EI and student academic progress, the relationship was not statistically significant. It was also found that parent income level did not moderate the relationship between teacher EI and student academic progress. However, student grade level was found to significantly moderate the relationship between teacher EI and student academic progress, with the direction of the relationship going from positive to negative as grade level increased.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mental well-being of children and adults is shockingly poor. Marc Brackett, author of Permission to Feel, knows why. And he knows what we can do. "We have a crisis on our hands, and its victims are our children." Marc Brackett is a professor in Yale University’s Child Study Center and founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence. In his 25 years as an emotion scientist, he has developed a remarkably effective plan to improve the lives of children and adults – a blueprint for understanding our emotions and using them wisely so that they help, rather than hinder, our success and well-being. The core of his approach is a legacy from his childhood, from an astute uncle who gave him permission to feel. He was the first adult who managed to see Marc, listen to him, and recognize the suffering, bullying, and abuse he’d endured. And that was the beginning of Marc’s awareness that what he was going through was temporary. He wasn’t alone, he wasn’t stuck on a timeline, and he wasn’t “wrong” to feel scared, isolated, and angry. Now, best of all, he could do something about it. In the decades since, Marc has led large research teams and raised tens of millions of dollars to investigate the roots of emotional well-being. His prescription for healthy children (and their parents, teachers, and schools) is a system called RULER, a high-impact and fast-effect approach to understanding and mastering emotions that has already transformed the thousands of schools that have adopted it. RULER has been proven to reduce stress and burnout, improve school climate, and enhance academic achievement. This book is the culmination of Marc’s development of RULER and his way to share the strategies and skills with readers around the world. It is tested, and it works. This book combines rigor, science, passion and inspiration in equal parts. Too many children and adults are suffering; they are ashamed of their feelings and emotionally unskilled, but they don’t have to be. Marc Brackett’s life mission is to reverse this course, and this book can show you how.

Download or read book Relationship Between Emotional Intelligence of Primary School 4th and 5th Grade Students and Their Teachers written by Soner Polat and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students gain many skills by observing, following and imitating others. Today one of the skills which students need most is managing emotions. The models who the elementary students imitate most are the teachers in their learning process. Therefore, teachers have an important role in students' gaining the skill of emotion management. From this point of view, teachers should exemplify the skill of emotion management well. Hence, this survey aims to reveal the relationship between fourth and fifth grade students and teachers' emotional intelligence perception. The data of the survey was gathered from the fourth and fifth grade students and teachers in the schools in central district of Izmit chosen by chance with the emotional intelligence perception scale of Wong and Law (2002). At the end of the survey, a meaningful and positive connection was found out between the students and teachers' emotional intelligence perception. It is seen that teachers' emotional intelligence management skill affects the emotional intelligence skill which students use positively and is an important explanatory variable. Accordingly, enhancing teachers' skilful use of emotional management has an effect on the improvement of students' own emotional management. (Contains 5 tables.).
Download or read book Advances in Teacher Emotion Research written by Paul A. Schutz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-08-14 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some reports estimate that nearly 50% of teachers entering the profession leave within the first five years (Alliance for Excellent Education 2004; Ingersoll, 2003; Quality Counts 2000). One explanation of why teachers leave the profession so early in their career might be related to the emotional nature of the teaching profession. For example, teaching is an occupation that involves considerable emotional labor. Emotional labor involves the effort, planning, and control teachers need to express organizationally desired emotions during interpersonal transactions. As such, emotional labor has been associated with job dissatisfaction, health symptoms and emotional exhaustion, which are key components of burnout and related to teachers who drop out of the profession. Research into emotional labor in teaching and other aspects of teachers’ emotions is becoming increasingly important not only because of the growing number of teachers leaving the profession, but also because unpleasant classroom emotions have considerable implications for student learning, school climate and the quality of education in general. Using a variety of different methodological and theoretical approaches, the authors in this edited volume, Advances in Teacher Emotion Research: The Impact on Teachers’ Lives, provide a systematic overview that enriches our understanding of the role of emotions in teachers’ professional lives and work. More specifically, the authors discuss inquiry related to teachers’ emotions in educational reform, teacher identity, student involvement, race/class/gender issues, school administration and inspection, emotional labor, teacher burnout and several other related issues. This volume, then, represents the accumulation of different epistemological and theoretical positions related to inquiry on teachers’ emotions, acknowledging that emotions are core components of teachers’ lives. Advances in Teacher Emotion Research takes an eclectic look at teacher emotions, presenting current research from diverse perspectives, thereby making this volume a significant contribution to the field.
