At the beginning there will be a clarification of the term emotions in general, which also includes negative emotions and how these can be manifested in the classroom by both parties involved and which situations may lead to the development of negative emotions. Connecting to that, there will be a discussion about the teacher perspective of coping with their negative emotions, which includes stress management and regulation, and also the avoidance of developing negative emotions as a teacher. Following that, the perspective of the students, on how teachers display their negative emotions in the classroom will be discussed, as students might have a different view on how they perceive the expressions of their teacher.
