This paper explores the perspective of college students regarding emotional intelligence in higher education. A great number of changes in the education system globally has developed new expectations for teachers. These days, teachers are not just the authority in a classroom but a mentor. Thus, emotions play a significant role in the teaching and learning process. This paper argues that mastery in subject matter does not make the best teacher in the eyes of students, rather emotional intelligence does. Emotional intelligence is neither the opposite of intelligence nor just the battle between mind and heart but it is the unique intersection of both. Quantitative research was done with 201 college students from different educational backgrounds. The data was analyzed with the theoretical modality influenced by Daniel Goleman's ‘Emotional Intelligence' method. The first part of the research explores what aspects of teacher’s students associate with being the best, and the second portion explores what behaviors the students want in their teachers in general. This research helps to identify emotional intelligence, a new domain introduced in the teaching and learning process, as significant, even from the student's perspective.

<p>The controversy of using L1 or L2 only in second language classes has been widely discussed in many studies. Some teachers, however, opt for the middle ground by employing the bilingual approach; they practice code switching to some extent to facilitate teaching learning process.  In the context of BIPA teaching and learning this issue has not been sufficiently addressed. Therefore, this study seeks to explore the teachers as well as the students’ attitude towards the practice of code-switching in BIPA classes, specifically in the basic level classes. The factors behind its practice will also be discussed in the light of its benefit and hindrance for teaching learning process. This study employed a quantitative research design by conducting a survey and a qualitative research design by interpreting the result of the interview with the teachers and students. In general the study indicates the need of code-switching to support teaching and learning process, especially for the beginner level classes.</p><em>BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRAK: Kontroversi penggunaan hanya bahasa pertama atau bahasa kedua dalam kelas bahasa kedua telah banyak dibahas dalam banyak penelitian. Meskipun demikian, sebagian pengajar memilih jalan tengah dengan menggunakan pendekatan dwi-bahasa; mereka menggunakan alih kode sampai kadar tertentu untuk memudahkan proses belajar mengajar. Dalam konteks belajar mengajar BIPA isu ini kurang banyak dibahas. Karena itu, studi ini ingin mengkaji sikap para pengajar maupun pelajar terhadap praktek alih kode di kelas BIPA, khususnya di kelas tingkat  dasar. Faktor-faktor di balik praktek tsb juga akan dibahas dalam perspektif kelebihan dan kekurangannya untuk proses belajar mengajar. Penelitian ini bersifat kuantitatif dengan mengadakan survei dan juga kualitatif dengan melakukan intepretasi terhadap hasil wawancara dengan pengajar dan pelajarnya. Secara umum, studi ini mengindikasikan perlunya alih kode untuk mendukung proses belajar mengajar, khusunya untuk kelas tingkat dasar.</em>

Two hundreds eighty nine pre-service teachers participated in the survey and 16 pre-service teachers participated in in-depth interviews.The study employs both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies.    The quantitative research methods employed two surveys and computed a series of descriptive, correlation, t-test, ANOVA and regression analyses to answer the research questions. The contrast comparative analysis method is conducted for qualitative data analysis to explore pre-service teachers’ beliefs about teaching and learning.   Results reveal that Turkish elementary education pre-service teachers have both traditional and constructivist beliefs about teaching and learning, but the majority of the participants has more constructivist tendencies in some points. The results of the current study also indicate that there are significant differences between the pre-service teachers due to gender, age, field experience, methods courses, and length of time in the program.Extended English abstract is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file.ÖzetBu çalışmada Türkiye’deki sınıf öğretmenliği öğretmen adaylarının öğrenme ve öğretim ile ilgili inançları, öğretim uygulamalarındaki tercihleri farklı değişkenler dikkate alınarak incelenmiştir.  Araştırmaya 290 öğretmen adayı katılmıştır ve bu adaylardan 16’sı ile derinlemesine görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Araştırmada hem nitel hem nicel araştırma dizaynı kullanılmıştır. Nicel araştırma dizaynı için demografik sorularla birlikte iki ölçek kullanılmış ve araştırma sorularına cevap verebilmek için betimsel, t-testi, korelasyon ve ANOVA analizleri yapılmıştır. Öğretmen adaylarının öğrenme ve öğretimle ilgili inançlarını açığa çıkarmak için nitel araştırma dizaynında yapılan derinlemesine görüşmeler nitel veri analizine tabii tutulmuştur.   Araştırma sonucuna göre sınıf öğretmenliği öğretmen adayları hem geleneksel (öğretmen merkezli) hem yapılandırmacı (öğrenci veya öğrenen merkezli) inançlara sahiptir. Ancak bu araştırmaya katılan öğretmen adaylarının çoğu özellikle öğretmen öğrenci ilişkisi gibi bazı boyutlarda daha yapılandırmacı eğilimlere sahiptir. Ayrıca, bu araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre öğretmen adaylarının öğrenme ve öğretimle ilgili inançları ve tercih ettikleri öğretim uygulamaları cinsiyet, alan deneyimi (okul deneyimi, öğretmenlik uygulaması gibi) ve sınıf düzeyleri değişkenlerine göre anlamlı farklılık göstermektedir.

Insight Into

Based on his experience as an educator, the author criticizes current methods and philosophies of learning and teaching. Learning should be geared towards practice (‘learning by doing’); teaching should be about exciting students and helping them perform meaningful tasks, rather than having them passively absorb knowledge that they cannot see the use of. Feedback from former students allows the author to posit a few simple rules for teaching and learning, and identify some of the major (though universally accepted) misconceptions about the role of the teacher and the nature of the learning process. A pragmatics of learning starts from naturally occurring learning situations and emphasizes teaching that is based on the learner’s own experiences, where mistakes are seen as a major source of insight into what is needed in order to achieve success in education and to remake the broken educational system that we are trying to cope with in today’s schools.

In response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, most of the higher education institutions (HEIs) across the globe have replaced conventional teaching with online teaching. However, the technological preparedness of countries of varied nature differs significantly. In this context, the purpose of the study is to answer the following research question: how are the HEIs mitigating the difficulties that have resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic to facilitate online teaching–learning process? The study is carried out based on a cross-sectional study from 281 academic professionals who are employed in HEIs in India and Ethiopia. The findings from this comparative study highlight that digital divide and lack of institutional preparedness are found to be major problems that constrained the effective implementation of online teaching/learning. Besides, this study also found that training programmes for the faculty members to utilize web resources and facilitate online teaching were found to be limited in both the countries. The article concludes by offering suggestions and policy advice to minimize the digital divide and for successful implementation of online teaching in HEIs.
