Comparing the roles and correlates of emotions in class and during online video lectures in a flipped anatomy classroom

Abstract

The present study compares the structure, the longitudinal relation, and the predictive roles of emotions in-class and emotions while watching online video lectures outside of class. Participants (N = 269) reported their emotions, attentional control, and behavioral engagement associated with in-class activities and online lecture viewing at two time points in a large “flipped” undergraduate anatomy course. Overall, the longitudinal and cross-contextual relations among emotions, from emotions to learning behaviors, and from emotions to achievement were similar, whereas distinct patterns of relations were found for learning behaviors, and from learning behaviors to academic achievement. These findings are discussed within the Control-Value Theory and provide implications for supporting adaptive emotions and learning in flipped classrooms. ? 2021 Elsevier Inc.
