Book Review: "Feelings and Emotion-based Learning: A New Theory"
This book is both joyful to read, and is also immensely powerful for its three main constituents. For teachers it provides a powerful and timely book that brings together notions of teacher experience and expertise with the importance of considering feelings and emotions while teaching. For academics the work provides a new and well researched theory of learning and contextualizes this amongst other prominent learning work. And for those who want to engage in feeling related
Book Review: "Feelings and Emotion-based Learning: A New Theory
The text of some 213 pages is offered in eight sections: Learning Theories and Relevance; Towards a Feelings Learning Theory; Mentoring Research Stories: Teachers’ Stories; Teaching Research: School Refusers’ Stories; Evaluation Research: Curriculum Approach Stories; Implications for Education; Feelings Research: Methods and Analysis; General Conclusion.

Book Foreword by Professor John Cromby
Jennifer Hawkins’ timely book demonstrates how the centrality of feeling to teaching and learning is at last being recognised and explored. Since feeling is absolutely integral to thinking and reasoning, her explicit and insightful exploration of the necessity to include feeling within discussions of teaching and learning is long overdue. When people think of feeling they often think solely of emotions. Although emotion science still lacks a universally agreed definition of e
Book Foreword by Professor Mick Waters
On the side of the learner When someone writes a book about teaching and learning they hope it will be read. More than that, though, they hope it will have an influence and affect the teacher and, in turn, affect the learner. The author usually wants to convey something that will strike a chord with the reader in the belief that this will move the reader into an active participant. In order to connect with the reader, the writer employs their trusted device to nudge the reade

Book Review: “Feelings and Emotion-based Learning: A New Theory"
“Well, Jenny, I have read it and enjoyed it enormously...The 'stories' of individuals are terrific and I like very much your charts that summarise and bring together issues...with the theoretical background to create the context they are strong. The book would be valid from the academic angle alone…I reckon it fits well with the new 'standards for professional development' (DfE) and should be seized upon by universities… I rarely read something that brings theory and practice
Book: Feelings and Emotion-based Learning: A New Theory
[Available to order from PalgraveMacmillan] This book compares and contrasts academic learning theories with the current social human learning environment discussing them in relation to modern clinical research. It suggests that developing a feelings learning theory could inform our attitudes about learning and improve our understanding of learning behaviour. The author’s premise is that feelings, both physical and mental are rational in individuals' own terms and should b

My PhD (2010) is based on four strands of data, which took eight years to collect. I carried out collaborative action research while teaching teenage school refusers, mentoring teachers and artist action researchers - recording pupil and teacher voices and artwork. In it I collected real stories of feelings about learning using participant voices showing how this kind of teaching research can improve understanding. My thesis researches and analyses feelings and emotions ab
