Speaker: Dr. Peter DE COSTA (Michigan State University, USA)
Following the sociocultural turn (e.g., Zembylas, 2005) in teacher emotion research and the broader and deepening interest in affect within adjacent fields of psychology (e.g., MacIntyre & Gregersen, 2016), second language acquisition (e.g., Gkonou & Mercer, 2016) sociolinguistics (e.g., Wee, 2017) and linguistic anthropology, I explore second language (L2) teacher emotions from a positive psychology and critical perspective. To illustrate the vibrant and burgeoning language teacher emotion research agenda, I elaborate on three recently published studies: De Costa, Rawal and Li (2018), Pereira (2018), and Wolff and De Costa (2017). I also provide an overview of the special issue of the Chinese Journal of Applied Linguistics (Mouton De Gruyter) on second language teacher emotions and argue how the second language teacher education research landscape can be enriched by a systematic investigation of teacher emotion labor. The presentation closes with a discussion of implications for pedagogy, policy and research.
