Abstract
I am delighted to have been invited to curate a collection of JME papers on emotion and learning. Several years ago I published a paper in JME called ‘Behind and Beyond Kolb’s Learning Cycle’ (Vince, 1998). The aim of this paper was to highlight aspects of experiential learning that were undeveloped in Kolb’s model, including the impact of individual and group emotion on experiential learning as well as the power relations that surround and pervade learning in context. It has been fascinating for me to revisit my earlier paper alongside the various articles (from 1988 to 2014) that the Editors asked me to consider for the Curated Collection. In so doing, I reflect on some of the themes and issues raised by the collection as well as implications for future scholarship and teaching practice. I hope that reading my thoughts and the articles included in this collection will inspire renewed interest in emotion and learning, and that this will lead to interesting new manuscripts for JME.
