Abstract

In recent years, an increasing drumbeat around emotion research in ELT has brought to the fore an appreciation of teacher psychology and the emotional underpinnings of the teacher–student relationship. This study explores how students report their teacher’s classroom behavior and how those observations lead learners to make broader impressions about the teacher’s mental state. As part of a larger study, 129 adult EFL students took a web survey about their teacher’s classroom behavior, perceived overall happiness, and their perceived wellbeing. Results revealed that teacher behavior was strongly correlated with perceived teacher wellbeing and happiness, meaning that based on how teachers behave in the classroom, students make far-reaching assumptions about their wellbeing beyond the classroom. Due to the phenomenon of emotional contagion, when students think their teachers are happy, they may also feel more positive emotions in the classroom. Suggestions for teachers are discussed, such as strategies for making the best of challenging situations and promoting healthy student relationships as a means to promote teacher and learner wellbeing. Suggestions for potential institutional changes are also made.

从学生视角探索教师课堂行为和幸福感
近年来,围绕英语语言教学中的情感研究的呼声日益高涨,教师心理和师生关系中的情感基础受到重视。本研究探讨了学生如何报告教师的课堂行为,以及这些观察如何导致学习者对教师的心理状态产生更广泛的印象。作为一项大型研究的一部分,129 名成人 EFL 学生参加了一项关于教师课堂行为、整体幸福感和幸福感的网络调查。结果显示,教师的行为与学生感知到的教师幸福感和快乐感密切相关,这意味着根据教师在课堂上的行为,学生会对教师在课堂之外的幸福感做出影响深远的假设。由于情绪传染现象,当学生认为教师幸福时,他们在课堂上也会感受到更多的积极情绪。讨论了对教师的建议,如如何充分利用具有挑战性的环境和促进健康的学生关系的策略,作为促进教师和学生幸福的一种手段。此外,还对潜在的制度变革提出了建议。
