Research Abstract |
This study examined teachers' positive emotional experiences when teaching by using the idea of "flow" in the analytic framework and by examining how teachers show their professionalism and how students react toward the teachers' actions. The following results were found. First, teachers experience marked happiness and enjoyment in classes that challenge them and when their own skill level is evaluated as high ; simultaneously, their cognitive potential, activity, and motivation increase. This result showed that the positive emotions and flow experiences that occur while teaching enhance teachers' creative thinking and flexibility of cognition. Moreover, flow experiences enable teachers to maintain a high standard of teaching that includes activities like improvised teaching and collaborative learning with students. These challenges promote the professional development of teachers.
