Module Overview

Originated by Prof. Felicia Rivera Megret

Affect is a concept used in psychology to describe the experience of feeling or emotion. The word also sometimes refers to affect display, which is “a facial, vocal, or gestural behaviour that serves as an indicator of affect”.  This module has been designed as a reflective workshop – ideal to use as an end of term ‘wrap up’ PHSE session.  It will work for students at KS2 and KS3 and could be accompanied by a journal writing exercise to be undertaken through a holiday as a homework piece.

We will explore

  • What is affective thinking?
  • Exploring prose and refelctive quotes for affective thinking
  • Optional journal writing
  • Optional group affective thinking exercises

Our programmes include a range of learning materials to support both teachers and students in the classroom. Content wise, each module is different but some components are common to all to provide assessment tools for teachers and familiar references for students.

This module includes

  • PowerPoint presentation – ideal as a wrap up PHSE session
  • Teacher assessment

We believe that some topics are approached more powerfully by bringing in animation. That is why some of the topics have videos to illustrate the learning points
