Analysis of the emotional intelligence of university students in the classroom

Addressing this issue motivates a systematic review of neurodidactics related to the learning process, which are directly related not only to memory but also to emotional stimuli. Learning begins in the hippocampus and amygdala collaborating in the evaluation of emotional stimuli. Through empirical research with a sample made up of 160 university participants from UNEMI, the ECI instrument was applied, the results of which made it possible to analyze how students manage their emotional intelligence skills in the classroom. The didactic strategies that are used in the classroom have the capacity to favor the learning of the students or to prevent it, depending on the management of the emotions that the teacher carries out. The article was developed based on a review of the literature related to the functioning of the emotional brain, and the way in which emotions influence human learning.
