The Role of Emotional Intelligence in Creating Engagement for Adult Learners (Historical)
via GoToWebinar
June 6, 2019
1:00–2:00 pm EDT (Expired)
Research shows that we remember more when we connect something new to an emotion/feeling/thought we already have embedded in our memory. Identifying these and triggering the emotions of the student can create the desire to engage in a topic as well. Understanding this may be key in getting students "on board" with learning new information that they will remember it in a meaningful way.
By the end of this webinar, students will be able to:
- Recognize emotions/feelings/thoughts to relate subject matter to the student.
- Identify ways to trigger these emotions to encourage student engagement.
- Explain how emotional involvement in the subject matter can make learning meaningful.
