After having been ignored for a long time,\u00a0because they were considered harmful and contrary to reason<\/a>\u00a0, emotions are now experiencing renewed interest both among the general public and in the context of research.\u00a0By showing that emotions and cognition are inseparable,\u00a0Damasio<\/a>\u00a0has given back their letters of nobility to emotions in the educational context.<\/p>\n Since the late 1990s, international studies have looked at emotions in the classroom.\u00a0This research most often focuses on students’ emotions and their link with learning.\u00a0When they are interested in teachers’ emotions, it is generally to analyze their impact on students and learning.\u00a0But in the current context of the\u00a0crisis in the attractiveness<\/a>\u00a0of the profession, studying them as such could help to understand how teachers experience their profession, and what is pushing a growing number of them to resign, especially at the start of their career. .<\/p>\n If there is initially a\u00a0vocational crisis<\/a>\u00a0which partly explains the shortage of teachers, a large number of trainees still enroll in initial training showing great motivation for the profession.\u00a0It is only during the year that they express a certain unease.<\/p>\n Little research has so far been devoted to novice teachers (trainees and newly tenured teachers) in France.\u00a0What emotions do they feel on a daily basis?\u00a0What triggers their emotions?<\/p>\n Remember that an emotion is not a simple response to a stimulus as we have long thought.\u00a0It cannot be defined in isolation because it\u00a0needs a context to construct itself<\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0Its starting point lies in the representation\/mental image\/scenario that a person has of a situation.\u00a0When this scenario is confronted with reality, the resulting\u00a0discrepancy then brings out the emotion<\/a>\u00a0.<\/p>\n Novice teachers begin their career with representations of the profession linked to their path as successful students, to the clich\u00e9s conveyed by the media and the general public such as “Teachers are always on vacation”, “being a teacher is the best job in the world”, “teaching English to beginners requires little preparation”, “in some neighborhoods, things can only go wrong”, etc.<\/p>\n These mental images generate in beginners fantasized representations of what is a \u201cgood\u201d teacher, a \u201cgood\u201d student, a \u201cgood\u201d course, the institution, colleagues, etc.\u00a0The actual reality in the classroom can be very different and this discrepancy can generate intense, even painful emotions.<\/p>\nAn emotional whirlwind<\/strong><\/h4>\n
