The Importance of Emotional Education —— On the Importance of Integrating Emotional Education into Teaching
Emotion is a unique psychological image of human beings and an experience of people's attitude towards whether objective things meet their own needs. In teaching, emotion refers to the feelings, feelings, emotions and attitudes of learners in the learning process. Emotion has the characteristics of rationality, sociality and variability, and has the functions of stimulating intelligence, motivation, regulation, infection and empathy. Intelligence factors such as feeling, perception, memory, imagination and thinking constitute the learning operating system, while non-intelligence factors such as motivation, interest, will and personality constitute the dynamic system of learning activities. The dynamic function of emotion is as follows: the greater the dynamic system, the higher the efficiency of the operating system and the better the learning effect; On the contrary, the learning effect is poor. Emotion can adjust students' self-confidence and study anxiety, improve study efficiency and relieve study fatigue.

In the process of promoting quality education in an all-round way, teachers should take students as the center and integrate emotions into the teaching process. Integrating emotional education into teaching plays an important role in promoting students' personality development and physical and mental health, forming good moral character and establishing good teacher-student relationship.

First, emotional education is an important guarantee for students' personality development and physical and mental health.

The French Enlightenment thinker once said: "Without emotional quality, no style can touch people's hearts." Through various forms of emotional teaching to students, students can learn in an amiable atmosphere, be unconsciously edified in a relaxed and happy way, and gradually internalize textbook knowledge into their own beliefs. Therefore, while paying attention to improving students' psychological quality, teachers should shape and adjust students' emotions purposefully and systematically according to psychological laws and strengthen emotional education. The general goal of emotional education includes three contents: cultivating students' social emotions; Improve their emotional self-regulation ability; Help them have a positive emotional experience about themselves, their environment and their relationship. These three aspects ultimately point to the completion of the whole educational goal and the cultivation of sound personality, which is also the ultimate or ultimate goal of emotional education.

Teaching practice shows that emotional education has an important influence on students' personality development and physical and mental health. Psychology believes that people's emotions and behaviors are the product of the interaction between personality and situation, and students' emotional activities are easily hinted and strengthened by situation. Situation is a kind of social psychological environment with "personalized significance" in which individuals live. It can arouse and stimulate some important emotions and strengthen some emotional experiences unconsciously. As a teacher, in the process of emotional education, we should create a good situation for students. By arranging students to play some positive roles, students can gain new role experience under the hint of role situation.

Creating successful situations can often cultivate students' positive self-emotion. Students get a good emotional experience from the success, care and love they feel, learn to deal with interpersonal relationships, and form excellent personality qualities such as caring for others, loving others, helping others, solidarity and mutual assistance. A person's attitude towards life, feelings towards the collective, others and society are often closely related to the warmth and coldness of human feelings he feels in his daily life. It can be seen that emotional education is not only related to students' personality development, but also related to students' physical and mental health.

Second, emotional education plays a special role in the formation of students' moral quality.

Emotion is an important factor affecting the formation of personality and morality. Some scholars have pointed out that people's acceptance of moral information is based on emotional activities as the initial clue, and the development of personal morality is ultimately guaranteed by the internal dynamic system with emotion as the core. In the elements of moral information, if the deep emotion of "believing" is removed, and the strong sense of responsibility and high enthusiasm for pursuing ideals are removed, moral belief becomes the shell of language and loses its original meaning.

For another example, emotions can trigger and regulate moral behavior. Once emotion forms a fixed pattern, it can maintain and deepen a certain behavior of people to ensure the unity of moral understanding and moral behavior. Therefore, the implementation of emotional education in teaching is conducive to the formation of students' good moral character. In the process of students' ideological and moral education, in order to achieve good results, teachers' requirements and ideas must be transformed into students' own requirements and ideas, and to achieve this transformation, we must rely on emotional education. Teachers set an example and show real care and love for students, so students will have trust in teachers and have a positive tendency to accept teachers' opinions and demands happily. Teachers' sincerity and care for students are the basis of winning students' trust and the psychological premise of students' education. Teachers' love can also make students imitate teachers' morality. Imitation is one of the important psychological characteristics of young people. Psychological research on imitation shows that people always tend to imitate those who love him and what he loves. Students are not only willing to accept the views and opinions of their favorite teachers, but also consciously or unconsciously imitate the teachers' words and deeds. In this way, teachers' morality and code of conduct have become their morality and code of conduct.

Example has great appeal, which can imprint the excellent quality of teachers on students' thoughts and behaviors. In emotional education, teachers can develop students' feelings with positive value orientation and form good moral character through their own example strength, creative work and emotional encouragement.

Thirdly, emotional education is an important link to establish a good relationship between teachers and students.

Makarenko, a Soviet educator, believed that the secret of successful education was "to ask for as much as possible and to respect as much as possible". Middle school students have basically formed an independent personality, an independent outlook on life and values, so teachers should respect students first, and then carry out emotional education on students on the basis of this respect. People are not vegetation, who can be ruthless? Therefore, love can narrow the distance between teachers and students; Can nourish students' hearts; Can influence students' thoughts. From the perspective of educational psychology, the educational process is a process of "psychological needs" between educators and educatees and a process of "psychological communication" between teachers and students. Psychological research also shows that only the education of mutual affinity and emotional blending will arouse students' emotional resonance.

Teacher-student relationship is the concretization of interpersonal relationship in the teaching field, and its essence is an emotional relationship between people. The emotional consistency between teachers and students will cause psychological "resonance" and "resonance" of both sides, which will play a huge role in mutual adjustment in teaching. The results of psychological research show that the education carried out during the emotional "resonance" period between teachers and students has the strongest acceptability and the best effect.

A good psychological relationship based on correct cognition and positive emotion can promote the formation of a good teacher-student relationship. In teaching, the strongest and deepest emotion is the teacher's love for students. The river of love flows in two directions. It can communicate the thoughts of teachers and students, coordinate the relationship between teachers and students, has the function of migration, and can produce the "teacher expectation effect". Emotion comes from demand, and people's basic psychological needs include security, love and belonging, autonomy and responsibility, respect and affirmation. The satisfaction of these needs will produce positive emotional experience, thus sprouting higher-level needs such as self-realization.

The value of emotional education lies in: 1. It has positive significance for human survival; 2. Promote the development of students' cognition; 3. Promote the establishment of good interpersonal relationships; 4. Promote the development of students' potential; 5. Improve students' aesthetic ability; 6. Improve students' moral quality; 7. Conducive to the development of students' socialization. Emotional education should create conditions to ensure that every student has a successful experience in the learning process and a self-esteem experience in daily communication, so as to establish a positive self-evaluation and produce a positive "self-acceptance". It is an important principle of emotional education to let every student have a chance to succeed and experience success.

Therefore, emotional education is to meet the needs of students and make them develop to a higher level. As long as we are good at cultivating students' positive emotions, making students have positive emotional experiences, cultivating emotions with emotions, attracting emotions with emotions, and communicating emotions with emotions, we will inevitably get students' passion and enthusiasm, as well as a sense of closeness to teachers, thus generating the experience of soul mates. Therefore, emotional education is an important link to establish a good relationship between teachers and students.
