AFETIVIDADE E APRENDIZAGEM NA EDUCAÇÃO: A IMPORTÂNCIA DA AFETIVIDADE NO PROCESSO DE APRENDIZAGEM DAS CRIANÇAS

Abstract

The theme of this article is the importance of affectivity in the teaching-learning process in early childhood education and also the affective bonds in student/teacher relationships. The purpose of this research is to prove the hypothesis that affectivity determines the success of a child. This child, when finding emotional support in the teacher, has a happier and more pleasurable learning experience. Thus, the objective is to study affectivity in educational relationships in the school context, more specifically, to discuss the role of affectivity in the child's development process in Early Childhood Education, as well as the importance of living with the group for the formation of subjects. We believe that learning will be more human only in an environment where there is social interaction, exchange of feelings and affection and, consequently, knowledge through interactions will bring a more significant cognitive development, as there is no way to separate affectivity from cognition and vice versa. Affectivity is the combination of all these feelings, capable of teaching how to learn, how to properly take care of our emotions and, thus, provide the child with a full and balanced emotional life. This study constitutes a bibliographic review of retrospective and descriptive research on books and scientific articles, based on works by theorists such as Saltini, Wallon, Piaget and Vigotsky. Data collection was based on the following premise: explanatory reading of all previously selected material in order to ve rify whether the consulted work was of interest for the writing of this article. Subsequently, the works were analyzed, filed and separated to reference the construction of this research.
