The goal is the development of a social and emotional teaching approach as a resource for multipliers to increase learners’ learning motivation. In particular, the following topics will be dealt with: emotions in learning (especially humour and laughing), learning atmosphere (creating a learning environment as a trust-creating „Safespace“, group dynamics, attachment to the teacher), brain-appropriate learning, intercultural competence and sensitivity to different learning cultures.

They will take part in 3 Learning/Training/Teaching activities with the topics of

1. Emotions in learning
