Social student representations: expectations, evaluations and emotions

Abstract

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.
