Creating positive atmosphere – a good emotional connection between teachers and students.

In this course the focus is on the motivational aspects and actions that Finnish teachers have found useful in our classrooms. All of these actions are meant to wake up students’ curiosity and interest, engage the students as well as enhance their well-being in the group.

The course focuses on six key elements that Finnish teachers use regularly in their classrooms for motivating students. These elements are interaction and atmosphere, sensing students’ emotional needs, orientation and visual materials, using prior knowledge and rewards to build motivation, and social relationships between peers.
