If teachers and all educators use the pedagogical approach of emotional action, it can be probable that students will collectivize emotions first individually, then in groups, in order to acquire new knowledge that becomes dialogue and meeting with others, in a dynamic respect. For teachers, focusing on the emotional understanding of their students through specific methods, tools and activities proposed, in line with specific objectives, becomes an instrument not only of deepening broader human themes but also possibility of intercepting and observing deviant conduct or risk, and stimulate overall well-being. For younger, this means that they will be real active protagonists in their growth and in their future as tomorrow’s adults. It’s necessary to return to human as an emotional and conscious act that means to educate younger generations in the complexity of society both as individuals and as a group within in the real and virtual context.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Education Sciences & Society - Open Access}, author={D’ambrosio, Mariangela}, year={2020}, month={Jun.} }
