    Abstract

    In educational contexts, the study of emotions has often, until recently, been
    neglected. This lack of interest has characterised several domains of knowledge,
    including the educational one, which is the main topic of the present anthology.
    The general neglect of emotions in education is regrettable and can have dramatic consequences, to such an extent that it can become a socio-political issue. Education implies the creation and development of human beings. This formation of human beings (Bildung) is a process that is challenging and involves a number of phenomena.
    Among the elements of the learning process, and perhaps among the most influential for learning processes, are the students’ and educators’ values and emotions. It is consequently vital to acknowledge emotions in education and educational changes in order to create innovative learning.
