In such environments teachers need to model the very emotional behaviours that they want their students to adopt, such as managing uncertainty and riskiness. Immordino, Yang and Demasio (2007) indeed confirm the profound effect that emotions have on a multitude of cognitive processes (including attention, memory and decision making). They also acknowledge how emotion is fundamental for the transference of skills and knowledge learned in the classroom into a realworld environment. Jeffers (2008) has argued that teachers committed to preparing students for the future should grant a high priority to teacher and student empathy, by encouraging activities which build connections between students and cultural objects, as well as between students themselves.
2007) that effective teachers make an impact of around 40% difference upon student attainment. Therefore whilst a school building, the principal or resources will all have some impact upon a learner, it is the teacher and student relationship that is considered the most important. Whilst the relationship between attainment and economic return is without doubt important it is also worth noting that the impact upon student dispositions can last a lifetime and cannot be so easily measured. So whilst the clinical figures on attainment are important we mustn’t forget that a teacher’s impact can be upon an entire lifetime, which we must also remember can be both a positive and negative effect.
