I hate this lesson! Understanding how children manage their affect during online reading lessons

  • Author(s) / Creator(s)
  • SSHRC IDG awarded 2023: Many of us have been frustrated when trying to learn something that we feel is difficult. Some of us chose to quit when facing frustration and others chose to work more so that they can overcome these difficulties. While several theories detail the role of adults’ emotions (i..e, affect) in language learning or technology enhanced learning, few (if any) detail how children’s feelings fluctuate when they are completing literacy lessons online. Moreover, existing theories have yet to detail how children monitor and manage their feelings (i.e., meta­affect) to maintain their focus and support their learning. This project will use participatory design methods to adapt existing instruments so that they are appropriate for use with children. We will then use these instruments to better understand how children behave, how they feel, and how they manage their feelings when engaged in online reading lessons.
