emotionMap

Emotion maps can be seen as an in-depth investigation into the emotional aspects of the “empathy Map”. Stemming from the field of Geo-Participation, emotion maps are used to gain an empathic understanding of how people are feeling at different places. To then be able to make community based decisions and improvements.

The classroom is one of the places where students spend most of their time. Hence, it is extremely important that they feel safe and welcome there. The “emotionMap” helps to map out positive and negative feelings students are experiencing in their classroom. Through that, spots that make them feel uncomfortable can be revealed and eventually improved

Together with the "emotionyMap" comes a reflection to further evaluate which new understandings the students could gain and to prepare the tasks “changeMaker” and “classroomRecreation”.
