Abstract

In the past decade, there has been increasing scholarly interest in language teachers’ emotional experiences, how they regulate and manage their emotions, and how their experiences and emotion-related practices are related to their cognition, practice, well-being, and professional development. A systematic and critical review is needed to help language teaching professionals to benefit from the insights generated by these studies. This review aims to explore this growing body of research on the emotions of language teachers published between 2015 and 2024 by outlining four major research themes: 1) emotional experience; 2) emotion labour; 3) emotion regulation; and 4) emerging emotion-related concepts. This review critically discusses these themes and draws on relevant research findings to visualise the results in an emotion-focused map of language teachers’ professional development. It concludes by proposing a research agenda to stimulate further inquiry into the emotions of language teachers.

语言教师的情感:对2015 - 2024年间研究的系统回顾
在过去的十年里,学术界对语言教师的情绪体验、他们如何调节和管理自己的情绪,以及他们的体验和情绪相关的实践如何与他们的认知、实践、幸福感和专业发展相关联越来越感兴趣。为了帮助语言教学专业人员从这些研究产生的见解中受益,需要进行系统和批判性的回顾。本综述旨在探讨2015年至2024年间发表的关于语言教师情感的研究,概述了四个主要研究主题:1)情感体验;2)情绪劳动;3)情绪调节;4)新兴的情绪相关概念。这篇综述批判性地讨论了这些主题,并借鉴了相关的研究成果,将结果可视化成一张以情感为中心的语言教师专业发展地图。最后,本文提出了一个研究议程,以激发对语言教师情感的进一步探究。
