Abstract

FERNANDEZ-PONCELA, Anna-María. Social student representations: expectations, evaluations and emotions. Rev. iberoam. educ. super [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.21, pp.190-217. ISSN 2007-2872.

This text is a study about emotions, expectations and evaluations in the educational process through social representations of a group of college students. Perceptions about life, the university and specifically the development of teaching and learning in a subject are reviewed. This will provide an overview about what they expect when starting a course and what they value when it concludes. The views are commonly satisfactory and positive, and this exercise allows the views on a topic that is little discussed by social sciences research.

Keywords : college; emotions; expectations; evaluations; students; social representations; Mexico.
